The Triangle Treasure Hunt - Can YOU Solve the Puzzle?

Pirates, treasure maps, black and white villages in Herefordshire? You must be kidding… But no, there is a link! When they discovered the Staffordshire Hoard, the largest hoard of Anglo-Saxon gold ever unearthed, they found a map and an old manuscript which seemed to have been unrelated. Wind forward and it is now believed that Anglo-Saxon pirates buried half of the treasure in a triangle between three villages in Herefordshire. Although the map is of an island, that is thought to have been part of the enigma designed to throw enemies off the chase. The pirates were from Herefordshire farming families who sailed the Seven Seas seeking their own fortunes. The question now is, can YOU, our best explorers, solve this puzzle and discover where the treasure hoard may have been buried nearby all those years ago?
