Geocache Description:


This a small, themed multi-cache which will take you on a time travelling mission. It has been created by an eight year old (and parent reviewed) so please bear that in mind in your logs. It is suitable for all ages, but watch the road crossings with little ones. The buildings made it hard to fix exact co-ords, so use the hints if you need to.

The Arts Centre, adjacent to the co-ords above, occupies the site of the old University. It’s gothic architecture provides a wonderful backdrop to the weekend market and the buildings house a variety of workshops for local craftspeople. In the information centre there is a display of the work of Ernest Rutherford that is well worth a look.

Step inside the Tardis (it is red in this universe) to find the values for W and E:

W = the number of screws you would undo with your sonic screwdriver if you needed to use the emergency escape hatch in the ceiling.

E = Number of window panes minus 25.

Use your Tardis to travel to WP2
S 43 31.844 E 172 37.845

You have now travelled into the future in your Tardis to show your assistant, Rose, some petrified giant evil robots called “Reasons for Voyaging”. How many reasons are there (B)?
B - 1 = H
B + 1 = L

The final cache is at S 43 DR.WHO and E 172 DA.LEK

using D=3, R=1, O=5, A=7
and see if you can remember the name of the Doctor’s dog for the value of K?

You are looking for a 200ml camo-painted snaplock container in a very busy spot. It is so busy that we suggest you sit/lean casually on the wall, reach with your left hand and be very discreet. Please replace the final EXACTLY where you found it, to make the next cacher's retrieval trouble free.
