Uncover the Lost Treasure of Captain Diamond!

In 1794, the infamous "Smuggler King" Captain Diamond was on his way to Salisbury with a ship full of smuggled goods. But before he could reach his destination, he stopped in Fordingbridge to split the loot with the Hawkhurst Gang. However, their plans were foiled by Customs men, and the Captain was forced to flee. But legend has it that Captain Diamond had already hidden a portion of his treasure and left a map with clues for its location. Now, it's up to you to follow the map and uncover the lost treasure of Captain Diamond!
