Track Down the Hidden Pages of Huntingdon!

Legend has it that Oliver Cromwell, the once Lord Protector, scribbled secret plans in the margins of his school books during his time at Huntingdon Grammar School. Before moving to college, he gathered his books, letters, and his diary and buried them outside Huntingdon for safe-keeping. But now, the Exploration Society needs YOUR help to follow the clues and uncover the exact spot where the precious pages are buried!
