lizzardman: Been back to check this one out and due to tree felling etc the area has completely changed and the cache is nowhere to be seen. Decided it's time to call it a day with this one!

Geocache Description:

This is a short wander in a Manchester park. It is a three stage puzzle cache, just over a half mile round trip on flat but possibly muddy parkland.

The above co-ordinates are for the start point, which is the entrance to the car park just off Wythenshawe Road. We suggest you park here, although there is sometimes a small fee in summer, in which case the park can be accessed from other roads.

From the start point, find the first location at:
N: 53 24.079
W: 002 16.561

Here, reading each bit of information only once, decode the co-ordinates of the second location, which is at:
N: TC AW.AEE
W: FFD B6.6BW

At the second location, use this crib
B: GHJK
D: PQRS
to decode the co-ordinates of the cache, which is at:
N: 53 (G+P)(H-P).(P+G)(K-2)(G+P)
W: 002 P(H+G).(R-G)(Q+P)(G-P)

The cache is a small tupperware box.
Well done for solving the puzzles!
