Geocache Description:


This cache is part of a series of caches which are placed at or near village halls and community centres. For details and statistics visit the Village Hall Series website Click here


The War Memorial Hall was built by the local inhabitants as a tribute to the men who fought in the First World War and was opened in 1932 by the then Prince of Wales who was to be Edward VIII. The hall continues to be used for village functions.

This is a 2 part multi-cache due to the nearby Mystery Cache. The final part is only about 1 minute away. On the RH post of the Notice Board is a White Notice. On that notice is an 11 digit number in the format ABCD EFG HIJK.

The final stage is at N 52° 54.(F-G)(C+D)D' W 0° 59.(D-B)(B+C)(I-J-K)'

You are looking for a home made container that is not an electrical hazard and is clearly identified with the Cache GC Code. The approach was very boggy when it was placed out.

Congratulations to Plasmawave & Spire 67 for getting the Joint FTF within 30 minutes of publication. It was chucking it down with rain at the time.

Update Nov 2020: We are aware that the building is currently fenced off. It seems that there is a problem with the roof leaking and the dreaded COVID has hampered repair efforts.
