Geocache Description:

The above co-ordinates are for a lay-by off the B600 where you can park. This is a short multi-cache and the cache location is a short walk away from the lay-by. Mainly footpaths, but can be a little muddy around the cache location. All the clues can be found at the footpaths, please respect this churchyard. You may need a pen, paper and calculator!
