///MANDMADEandMAN Mystery uncovered\\\

Whilst out caching the pair found something intriguing, close to a cache the distance of a few footsteps.

Three at most, the container looked expensive maybe as much as a month's salary.

When the intriguing container was opened inside was a torn piece of paper with guitar chords shown in clusters of three notes known as triads.

Within this little mystery there is a solution for you to uncover, you just have to identify what three words hold the key to GZ, good luck. You can check out your answers with certitude. Please remember these caches are designed to be found on foot.


Originally home to Richard Shutleworth, who was a racing motorist, aviator and prolific collector of veteran cars and aircraft. His collection forms the nucleus of the Shuttleworth Collection. He was killed in an air crash on a night RAF training exercise in 1940.

The cache has been placed in conjunction with and with the kind permission of the team at the Shuttleworth Collection & Swiss Gardens.The team at the Shuttleworth Collection & Swiss Gardens have respectfully requested that the caches are found via foot and not as drivebys. There are various designated parking areas as well as the one that has been waypointed. Please be careful not to obstruct  the genearal workings of the argricultural college, Shuttleworth manor house & the Shuttleworth Collection itself. We just want everyone to stay safe & enjoy the hides.
