Geocache Description:


Devon&Somerset 'Fingerposts' - #45 Kingston St Mary

 

The Posted Coords will take you to a Fingerpost. You will need to collect some info from the Fingerpost and it's surroundings and the do some simple maths which will give you the correct coords to find the cache.

 

Using the Fingerpost

 

# The millage to Fyne Court Broomfield minus the millage to Taunton =A

# The millage to Nether Stowey =B

 

Using the plaque on the Bench

 

# The number of letter C's on the plaque plus the number of letter A's on the plaque, minus 1 =C

# Substitute the second letter in the first word on the plaque for it's value in the alphabet, this will =D

# Substitute the last letter in the last word on the plaque for it's value in the alphabet, this will =E

 

By now you should have all the info that you need!

Checksum A+B+C+D+E =19

The cache can be found at: N 51 03.(C+D+D)(E-D-D)(A+D) W 003 06.(E)(B+D)(E-D)

Hope you find the cache!

Happy Caching!
