A trail of clues awaits in

Broseley

When John Wilkinson and others financed the building of the world's first iron bridge, they probably never dreamt it would become a World Heritage Site! However, no records seem to exist of how they ACTUALLY built the bridge… Over the years, there have been many theories as to how they did it in those pre-mechanised days. But, while browsing some documents in a junk shop, thrifty local Kay Nye spotted a worn note with a map and instructions. The scrawled writing suggested that the plans were kept in a locked box, buried in the garden of one of the worker's cottages. The Expedition Society have been tasked with tracking it down; can you - our TOP Adventurer - follow the Clues and pinpoint the stash spot to uncover a 200-year-old secret?
