This multicache has been set by The Bratch Scout Group, and will take you searching around the special area our Scout hut is situated besides.
The published coordinates will take you to the Scout hut where you will need to find the answers to the questions below, in order to undercover the final cache location.
Our Scout hut is situated next to the South Staffordshire Railway Walk, which runs from Wolverhampton's Aldersley Stadium to Himley, then continues as the Kingswinford Railway walk to Pensnett Near Dudley, around 11 miles in total. The route is road free as it runs along an old railway (closed in 1965) so crosses the roads via bridges. The South Staffs section has various picnic sites dotted along the way and is a wide flat surfaced path ideal for bikes with trailers, tandems, tag along bikes etc. There are many other caches along the route to enjoy.
There is plenty of parking here, but the gate will be closed at sun down.
To find the final cache location you will need to answer the following questions and substitute the answers into the coded co-ordinates:
A = Number of letters in the 3rd word of the sign over the door.
B = Number of bolts holding up the sign.
C = Number of W’s PLUS number of A’s on the sign
D = Number of H’s on sign MINUS number of E’s
Replacing letters with above answers to give:
N 52 32.AAB
W 002 11.CCD
We hope you enjoy our cache and the Railway Walk. For further information regarding our Scout Group (Boys & Girls aged 6-14) please visit https://thebratchscoutgroup.org.uk/
