Geocache Description:


This cache is an easy to solve mystery cache.
However finding the cache may be a challenge.

The cache is not at the listed coordinates, the plaque you need to gather information from is.

You will have to gather information at the listed coordinates and perform some basic math to find where this cache is located.

The cache is located at: N 39 10.1AB W 078 10.5CD


Searching for this cache is only allowed during daylight hours.

Welcome to one of the oldest (if not the oldest) existing graveyards (tucked away and not well known about) in the city of Winchester.

I have found no documented reports of ghostly activity at this location but I’m sure the residents here are most likely restless due to neglect of their final resting place.

When standing at GZ you will see a large plaque on the stone wall. For AB add 8 to the last two digits of the years that this graveyard was in use (XX+8=AB)

For CD add 8 to the last two digits of the year that John Parkin’s will was dated. (XX+8=CD)

You can check your solution with the solution checker on this page.

Once you get the green light it’s off to find the cache which is a short drive away.

You may need an extraction tool to get the log sheet out of the container.

Don't forget to bring your own writing instrument.
