Geocache Description:


This is a multi-stage geocache. This will require patience, some research, and multiple trips.  This is NOT a "park and grab".  This does not require a trip through briars, brambles, or snake holes.  Carabiners and cleats are not needed. This is a good cache for wet, dark winter days. It does end in an actual, real non-micro geocache.

Stage One: These are the coordinates given above.  When you arrive at these coordinates, you will be in front a a large, obvious historical marker. To solve the coordinates of the second stage, you will use some of the information on this marker.  You will need to know the exact inscription on this marker, as well as the layout of the inscription.  We'll just refer to this marker from here on as "Stage One".

Stage Two:

A = Fourth digit of the year of the Battle of Hastings 
B = Position of the letter "J" in Stage One 
C = First digit of the first two-digit number in Stage One 
D = Position of the first letter "O" in Stage One 
E =  Position of the first letter "E" in Stage One 
F = Position of the first letter "M" in Stage One 
G = Third digit of the year of the Battle Of Hastings
H = Second digit of the year of the Battle Of Hastings 
I = Third digit of the year of the Battle Of Agincourt 
J = Fourth digit of the year of the Battle Of Agincourt 
K = Second digit of the first two-digit number in Stage One 

You must solve the following URL in order to find the second stage.
