- Found it
I failed dismally on this cache a month ago but came back determined to find it. This time I came armed with a proper sighting compass rather than the compass on my iPhone which is ok, but not accurate enough for letterbox type hints. However, I discovered that the sighting compass didn't put me in the same position as the GPS and I noticed that other had made similar comments, and they all found it relying on their GPS alone. So I ignored the compass and concentrated on the GPS and eventually managed to retrieve the cache which was very well hidden and on the coordinates 
! I then used my sighting compass to check the bearings and I made the centre of the holly 38 degrees. With that bearing everything else lined up perfectly. So I have now completed this excellent series which I have thoroughly enjoyed, so TFTC and for the series.
