Wymondham Central Hall
Central Hall is a community centre owned and run by a charitable trust whose aims are to provide a facility for the use of residents of Wymondham and the surrounding area to hold meetings, classes and other recreational activities. It is run by a Management Committee who are a group of volunteers, both elected members and representatives of the groups who make use of the hall. A Hall Manager is employed to look after the day to day running of the building.
Main hall and stage Reception and bar/kitchen
After an 8-year fund raising campaign the hall was built in 1965, with a significant refurbishment in 2010 to improve the facilities. This provided a foyer and bar area and modern accessible toilets, with a refitted and updated kitchen. A ground-source heat pump was installed, along with solar panels and improved insulation to help the hall’s green credentials. Externally the hall was re-clad to modernise the look of the building. As well as the main hall and stage, there are other smaller rooms which can be separately booked for smaller events, such as the Tiffey Room.
The Tiffey Room Central Hall with the library beyond
Among the activities in the hall are regular fitness classes, carpet bowls and a bridge club, and a local church meets every Sunday. The local amateur players frequently put on performances as well as an annual pantomime run by the local Young Farmers, which are both usually well attended.

The cache coordinates will take you to Central Hall, but the cache is not hidden on or near the hall, largely due to the proximity of the "Bookworm Wymondham" cache in the library next door! You will need to walk around the hall and find the answers to the following to find the final coordinates. Start on the side of the hall by the main entrance.

A = The number of square vents on the hall roof.

B = The number of letters in the second word above the main entrance.

C = How much it will cost (in whole pounds) to park after 6:30pm and on Sundays.

Now walk round to the other side of the hall, next to the library.

D = The number of cycle stands, less one.

E = How long in minutes it will take to walk to the Abbey (although to my eyes the sign is pointing in the wrong direction!!).

F = Number of metal balls.

Final cache is found at N 52° 34.ABC, E 001° 06.DEF. You can walk there via footpaths in less than 5 minutes, or drive round if preferred although parking might be difficult. Apologies if you're short of stature, I was a bit stuck for options...



You can validate your puzzle solution with certitude.
