Barton Thrills Multi-Cache

This cache has been archived.

Lactodorum: Hi, this looks suspiciously like the cache has gone. Could the owner please undertake a maintenance visit to check if it's there or not. In the meantime I'm archiving it but I'll happily unarchive it if/when it's found assuming it still meets the guidelines.

Thanks, Lactodorum

Geocache Description:

The above coordinates are for parking and not the actual cache location.
This is an easy walk mainly along village paths which all the family can do . The duration of the walk should be about 40mins to an hour and there are a couple of pubs nearby for refreshments. The cache can easily be done on bikes as well as it is about a 1.5 mile ride.


The cache starts at the Bull Inn where parking is available at N 52.20.107, E 000.31.837
===========================================================
First go to N 52.20.106, E 000.31.864

How many adults were there in the village in 1603 = XY

Now fill in the coordinates and go to N 52.2Y.124, E000.31.8XX

===========================================================

When was the house built = 16XY
Then calculate Y – 3 = Z
Now go to N 52.20.0X0, E 000.31.XZ2

===========================================================

When was the building built = 195X
Then calculate X + 1 = Y
Go to N 52.20.000, E 000.31.Y14

===========================================================

You are looking for a single letter. Once you’ve found it give its numerical place in the alphabet and put it in place of the question marks.

N 52.20.AD0, E 000.31.0BC

Happy hunting

If you fancy making a half day of it you can go to my friend's geocache "Why the gas" which starts at the village hall in Barton Mills and from there go to
" Larking About" which begins at Mildenhall Cricket Club.
