Rated: Easy

You will be building a large castle, 5 1/2" X 6", so come prepared! There is only one logbook, which is in the final box.

Directions from Willimantic or Lebanon center:

Take Village Hill Road off Rt. 289. Turn left onto Cook Hill Road. Scovell Cemetery will be on your right.

Directions from Columbia:

Take Cook Hill Road off Rt. 87 near the Lebanon/Columbia town line. Follow until just before the stop sign at the intersection of Village Hill Road. Scovell Cemetery will be on your left.

Enter the cemetery and find the name of a famous palace in London. This will be your starting point for your castle building excursion. To start, go 19 paces (count left foot only) at 255 degrees. There you will find three palace guards protecting the top left piece of your castle. Return to the palace. Now go to the corner of the cemetery that overlooks the "Village." Look in the wall at the feet of the largest guard to get the top right piece of your castle. Return to the palace. Look for the double castle guards at 190 degrees. With your back to the guards, take 3 large steps (not paces) towards the cemetery opening. Look at the wall at ground level and see a rust-colored stone. Look behind this stone to find the bottom left piece of your castle. Return to the palace. To find the last piece of your castle, go 19 paces (left foot only)at 220 degrees. Low in the wall behind the guard on the left you will find what he is protecting.

We hope you had fun building your castle. As always, please rehide all boxes well. Don't forget to bring the clues to "Ol' John Joseph's Railroad Yard Series" with you. It is very close by.

Good luck and happy hunting!

I would like to thank Burning Feet for taking over this series.
