Welcome to a War Memorial cache in Alkrington.
This war memorial is located at Alkrington and Providence United Reformed Church. Please also check out the Church Micro here.
This wasnt originally a War Memorial but was put in place to celebrate two churches coming together, hence the dual pillars. It was later added to the official War Memorials register and local names from WW1 And WW2 were added. As you can see the incriptions have weathered a bit over time.
This cache isnt at the listed coordinates. But you need to come here to get some information and work out the final location which is a short walk away.
To work out the final coordinates you need to look up (on either side) and you will see 2 letters followed by 4 numbers
The 4 numbers are A B C and D (Checksum = 21)
The cache is located at
N 53° (B/3) C . C (C+A) A W 2° (D+C+A) . C (CX2) C
