Start at the War Memorial in Chesham Broadway N51°42.373
W000°36.738
Take a look at all the names on the main memorial for the
1914-18 war.
How many Birches are there ? This will give ‘A’
How many Batchelors are there ? This will give ‘B’
How many Adams are there ? This will give ‘C’
How many Darvells are there ? This will give ‘D’
How many Laceys are there ? This will give ‘E’
How many Humphreys are there ? This will give ‘F’
Now you’re ready for the waypoint that will give you the final
clue.
Go to N51°42.ABC W000°36.(D+2)EF
You should be standing in front of a memorial to Thomas Harding a
local martyr who died near this spot. He was burnt at the stake for
his religious beliefs and readings. Ok. On to the cache !
Look at the year of his death.
The last figure gives you ‘G’
The second figure gives you ‘H’
The month of the year gives you ‘I’
The first number of the date gives you ‘J’
The month of the year gives you ‘K’
The last but one number in the year gives you ‘L’
Go to N51°42.GH(I+2)W000°36.JKL
Enjoy !
Please respect the farmer’s fields and stick to the footpaths.
Resist the temptation to go ‘As the crow flies’.
If you enjoy this one why not backtrack a few yards and head across
the field back down to Chesham, cross the railway and try
‘The Philanthropic Find’
Please be careful when you get to the bottom of the tree covered
path on the way to the railway as there is quite a drop on the
right-hand side behind a low wall. Hold your children’s hands !
Unless of course they’re like ours, 32 and 35 !)
