Geocache Description:

Situated in the middle of Stevenage is the Failands valley park and lakes. The Fairlands Murder Game caches are all placed around the area, allowing the full set to be completed in an afternoon. The game is a series of 5 caches which will provide you with clues to find the 6th, and final, cache.

This cache is a plastic box (8" x 4" x 2"), but you will need to find the first 5 Fairlands Murder Game Clue Caches first! The coordinates above give the location a nearby car park - not the cache itself!

Fairlands Murder Game – Instructions

This Cache is one of a series based on the Cluedo board game. Please do not remove the cards from this cache – or share the information you have discovered here – it defeats the purpose of the game!

In each of the clue caches you will find several cards, each showing a person, place or object. A numbered list of all the options is on the other side of this card. You need to find the identity of the murderer, the murder weapon and the location of the body – these are the only ones that you will not find in the clue caches.

Once you have found this information you will need to find the murderer’s hideout!

The position of the hideout is:
N51°54.AB6, W000°09.C08

Where:
A is the number of the Murderer,
B is the number of the Weapon,
C is the number of the location of the Body.
