A trail of clues awaits in

Belvoir

Long, long ago, back in the 14th century, a tax collector was robbed by outlaws as he passed through the Vale on his way to Nottingham! He was carrying a fortune in gold, freshly collected from the nearby villages, and all of it was lost. The outlaws were caught, but never revealed the truth of where they'd stashed this golden hoard. The treasure trove may have spent hundreds of years hidden away, but it's not gone forever! During recent restoration work on a local church, an ancient map was found with strange markings on it. Experts at the Exploration Society believe the map reveals the gang of thieves' favourite stash spots. Can you - our TOP Adventurers - follow the ancient clues and pinpoint the place where the gold can be recovered?
