Number 326 in a series of caches where a red telephone box is in close proximity to a post box.
The only rule is that they have to be able to be photographed together, and the phone boxes have to be red.
The cache is not at the posted coordinates, but the information you need is. The cache is a little bit further away.

NOTE: This cache was made by a prolific hider and iconic Devon Cacher - KEVHAM - who sadly passed away a few weeks ago.
His family kindly allowed many of us to take caches from his collection of unused containers to be placed in South West locations in his memory,
Please rehide the cache well.
There is on-street parking near to the Fine Pair. It does get busy at the weekend, especially on a Sunday around church service time.
There is room to park close to the final location but please be careful near and on the road, especially with children and pets.
If anybody would like to place 'A Fine Pair' of their own please do. I would just ask that you first visit www.afinepair.co.uk to request a number to avoid any duplication
mattd2k also keeps a public Bookmark List of this series. Once your cache is published please contact him via geocachingafinepair@gmail.com to have yours added
