Village Water Pumps #32 - Hemyock
The Posted Coords will take you to a Water Pump which is situated in the village centre, you will need to collect some info and do some simple maths which will give you the correct coords to find the cache.
To collect most of the info you will need the look at the plaque that is on the top of the water pump.
# The first number of the day that the Parish Pump was unveiled =A
# The number of letters in the month that the Parish Pump was unveiled =B
# The second to last number of the year that the Parish Pump was unveiled =C
# The last number of the year that the Parish Pump was unveiled =D
# The number of letters in the surname of the Vice Lord-Lieutenant of Devon Sir John =E
# The total number of lines of text that are on the plaque =F
# The number on the side of the water pump =G
# The number of kerbstones that go around the perimeter of the platform divided by 2 =H
Checksum - A+B+C+D+E+F =36
The cache can be found at: N 50 (A+G)(H-C).(F-D-G)(E+G)(B+A) W 003 (D-E)(D-A).(E+E)(A-C)(E-A)
These small pumps are a historic link to our past, and part of our national heritage, and deserve to have a national numbered series on them.
