Geocache Description:

This is a trip around the town of Great Malvern on a circular route lasting about an hour, paved all the way with some steps.  It will test your powers of observation.


Forty images of Great Malvern can be found along a circular walk around the town, starting at the Waitrose car park and finishing at Wilko nearby. These are arranged in four groups. What you must do is to work out the correct order of the images along the route. These are coded by letter. Taking the first one you find as zero, and the last as nine, you can then calculate the co-ordinates of the box. To help you, every group is coded the same way, and an additional help is that E=5.

All should be visible along the route shown . Remember to look up as well as down. Some are more obvious than others. Locals can test themselves before setting out. It is normally possible to go through the big theatre complex. If it is closed, then walk round from the front door to the back before going into the park. Waitrose allows 2 hours free parking. Check to see if there are wardens about if you wish to stay longer.
