Crack the Clues and Discover the Lost Tale of Great Haywood

J. R. R. Tolkien was a master of storytelling, creating fantastical worlds and epic adventures in his famous works like "The Hobbit" and "The Lord of the Rings" trilogy. But there's one story that has been lost to time, hidden away in the village of Great Haywood. Can YOU unlock the secrets and save this lost tale before it falls into the wrong hands?

Spy Mission Through Great Haywood

Join in on the fun with family and friends as you embark on this exciting self-guided Spy Mission Treasure Trail through the charming village of Great Haywood. As you follow the Trail route, you'll encounter sneaky clues hidden on existing buildings, permanent features, and monuments, just like a true secret agent.

Follow in the footsteps of J. R. R. Tolkien himself as you journey through the village and along the picturesque Trent & Mersey Canal, discovering the inspiration behind his writings and the hidden location of his lost tale.
