Baydon Viewing ( Wiltshire ) Mystery Cache
civilised: My first cache is no more.
The footpath has been separated from the site by a new barbed wire fence - which makes the cache untenable.
Thanks to all those who took the time to find Baydon Viewing - and thanks to MMattyK for letting me know about the problems.

Baydon Viewing ( Wiltshire )
Please note Use of geocaching.com services is subject to the terms and conditions
in our disclaimer.
This cache is located north west of Baydon in Wiltshire. Baydon lies on Ermin Street, a Roman road which runs almost straight from Speen near Newbury to Cirencester and beyond.
The main reason for placing this cache is to draw attention to the view which is glorious from here – you are about 760 feet above sea level, and the outlook over Aldbourne and its valley is well worth the journey – not to mention the cache.
The co-ordinates above don’t locate the cache – although it’s not far away. They will take you to a parking space – room for 1 car – from there follow your GPSr. There is one stile - this may make it inaccessible for those in pushchairs and wheel chairs; it may or not be accessible for a dog; the fence next to the stile has a break but is protected by barbed wire leaving about a 12 inch gap.
The cache itself is well protected by nettles, brambles and several holly trees – be warned – go suitably dressed.
The final coordinates were taken 10 feet NW of cache due to heavy tree cover - please bear this in mind.
But first you have to solve the clues :)
These are tag lines – each item referred to by a tag line has a digit within it – find the numbers and you’ll know the coordinates.
You won’t need all the numbers – just wanted to make it more interesting.
A Together for the first time
B You can't prepare for where the truth will take you
C He rode the fast lane on the road to nowhere
D He's quite engaging. She's otherwise engaged
E The murder that changed the lives of millions
F At the end of the world his real journey began
G There are worse crimes than killing a person.
H Who's next
I All the power on earth can't change destiny.
J A new power is rising
Relate the item number to the relevant letter and use them to find the coords –
N CA.IH.HJB, W HHA.IG.AJE – all letters represent digits apart from N & W and I = eye – not one :) ( just making sure )
The cache consists of an ammo can. Because this is my first cache I’ve been generous with the contents – in line with the theme you’ll find some DVDs including Citizen Kane, The Blair Witch Project and The Royal Tenenbaums – please restrain yourself to one DVD per customer – other items are also there. Future caches, if any, may well start with less extravagant items :) There is also a FTF certificate designed with every ounce of my creative abilities :)
Please rehide the cache as well as possible.
