Geocache Description:

##correct coordinates are N51 45.808 W0 44.379##

These take you to the Anne Boleyn cottages just past the clock tower in Wendover.

I believe everybody knows the famous Tudors and most importantly Henry VIII and his many wives. This cache is about Anne Boleyn which was the second wife of Henry. 

 


Anne was the daughter of Thomas Boleyn, 1st Earl of Wiltshire, and his wife, Lady Elizabeth Howard, and was educated in the Netherlands and France. She returned to England in early 1522, to marry her Irish cousin James Butler, 9th Earl of Ormond. The plans were broken up and she secured a post at court as maid of honor to Catherine of Aragon.

In 1526, Henry began his attempts to seduce Anne,who resisted until 1532. Anne gave birth to the future Queen Elizabeth I on 7 September 1533. Henry was so disappointed with the birth that his marriage started to see cracks and by 1536 he was courting to Jane Seymour. 

Henry had Anne investigated for high treason and by May 1536 she was arrested and sent to Tower of London, where she was tried, found guilty and finally beheaded. While alive, she enjoyed hunting,playing cards and wearing expensive jewelry.

To get to your final destination, stand on the pavement opposite the cottages and answer the following:

A:What number is on the first cottage from the left?

B:How many foxes are running on the roofs of the cottages?

Please assume all cottages are Anne Boleyn Cottages.

After you figure that one out, you can take a leisurely walk towards your final stage. Once there, you are looking for a large box.

The questions have been adjusted due to negative private comments.I really hope this change makes solving this cache much easier.
