This cache is Part 2 in a series of three. You will need to complete parts 1 and 2 in order to get the co-ordinates for the final part (it is recommended that you complete Part 1 first). Each of the three have their own standard cache container to find and are set within the area known as Sharpenhoe Clappers. The terrain is generally good (can get muddy in heavy winter) with a few gentle climbs/scrambles and is great fun for the kids.

Owned by the National Trust, Sharpenhoe Clappers is an attractive chalkland spur crowned by a graceful stand of beeches and an Iron Age fort. The hill rises to 525 feet, providing excellent views, and is fringed by Clappers Wood. Trails lead through the wood, and wildflowers abound in summer. It is in the Chilterns Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Parking is available at N51˚ 57.266 W000˚ 27.054 and ‘refreshments’ are available a little further down the road.


Part 2 – Robertson Remembered

Monumentally speaking, Norman died on 2A June 191B while his brother Laurence died on 3C July 19DE
Use this information to complete the co-ordinates below and find the real hidden cache. When you find the cache remember to take a card (or make a note of the longitude) so that you can complete the final part of this series.

N51˚ 57. BA5
W000˚ 27.CDE

The cache is a standard 2L container that has a small selection of children’s goodies. For the decent stuff you will need to find the final cache which has a much better selection to choose from. Please hide the cache carefully when you have finished especially in winter when there is less foliage cover.

A beautiful location and a very moving monument! Found quite quickly despite being well concealed under all the fallen autumn leaves. TNLN then move on to the final......

Part two of the three part series, again found with not too much problem. Took a pen, left a gel hand warmer. Noted the West co-ordinate for the final part however as part one had been vandalised, with no North co-ordinate available the final part was not completed.
