Geocache Description:


A number hunting exercise in a quiet corner of Castle Bromwich.

Number-bearing items found between the hall and the gardens have been
photographed and the required digits removed and substituted with letters.
Find all the letters and plug them into the formula to find the cache.

The letters will not be found in order (but B is last).

Castle Bromwich Hall is a Jacobean Mansion that was built between 1557
and 1585 by Sir Edward Devereaux. Castle Bromwich Hall Gardens which
surround the Hall is the only surviving example of an 18th century English
formal garden, having escaped the attentions of Capability Brown.
Sir John Bridgeman II originally laid out the Hall’s gardens in the style to
which they have been restored by the Castle Bromwich Hall Gardens Trust.
The Gardens are open to the public and are a popular tourist attraction.

It is suggested that you park in Birmingham Road (no through road to cars)
then walk back past the hall and turn left into Chester Road.
If coming by bus, services 71 and 59 stop in Hall Road.

Cache is located at...
N52° 30.ABC W001° 47.DEF
You are looking for a small plastic box that originally contained some packets
of seeds to grow your own garden!

It is suggested that you continue across the heath to the final cache and if
you haven't already found it, you could pick up Stokesy's Collector Cache 6.
