Geocache Description:


This is a bonus to "A trip around 1870 Purbrook" https://labs.geocaching.com/goto/1870Purbrook 

You will need the information you collect whilst walking the route.

Some of the information will be letters and some in numbers.

 

Please bring a notebook to make your life easier. 

All numbers will need to be converted into letters using 1 = A, 26 = Z

 

A = Stop 1 - 1st (and last) letter of the Lab qu. answer? 

B = Stop 1 - 5th letter of the Lab qu. answer?

C = Stop 1 - same as B

D = Stop 2 - 4th no. - 1st no. of Lab qu. answer?

E = Stop 2 - 2nd letter of Lab answer?

F = Stop 2 - Add the 6 numbers (found on the green box on Stakes Road (not the green box on the main road section)) together and deduct 2 from the total?

.

Q = Stop 5 - Door number (found for O) minus 10

I am aware that there is now more difficulty in getting the final coords should you want them. 

Therefore you can put the output of the above into this checker to get them. 

 

You can validate your puzzle solution with certitude.
