Description EN

The co-ordinates on this page are not the co-ordinates of the cache but those of the Magna Carta memorial at Runnymede. The cache is hidden on National Trust land near the memorial.

You need to find some information about the Magna Carta to locate the cache:

The year in which the original Magna Carta was signed is ABCD.
The year in which the memorial was unveiled is EFGH.

This information is readily available on the internet, so the cache could be done as a puzzle instead of a multi. It's unlikely to save you any time as probably you will be walking past the memorial on the way to the cache anyway.

The cache is located at:

N51 B(D+1).(H-A)(C-E)(A+B)
W000 (G-B)(F-D).(D-G)F(C-A)

Parking is available at the National Trust Tea Rooms, at Runnymede Pleasure Grounds, in Coopers Hill Lane and, in the summer if it is not too wet, along the river. All except Coopers Hill Lane are chargeable.

There is easy access by boat from the Runnymede National Trust moorings.

Thanks to the National Trust for their permission to place the cache on their property and for their friendly co-operation in finding a suitable location. GEOCACHING ON NATIONAL TRUST PROPERTY IS AT YOUR OWN RISK.

Handicache rating H42422.

Summary: There has to be a cache here Laughing.

Nice walk? Yes.
Great views? Yes.
Interesting location? Yes, this is an important part of our history. Also nearby is the Kennedy Memorial, and the Air Forces Memorial is at the top of the hill.
One of a series? No.
Cache trail? No.
Unusual hide? No.
Cache and Dash? No.
Size? Small. It's a multi because I was refused permission to place a cache within the memorial enclosure itself.
