A trail of clues awaits in

Norwich

Legend has it that during the Norman invasion of East Anglia, a vast treasure was hidden on a small island off the coast. Despite centuries of searching, the stash and any evidence of its existence remained elusive… that is until now! Amateur adventurer, Ima Digitup, stumbled upon an ancient map while exploring the Norfolk Broads. The map was marked with all the possible burial spots and a list of clues pointing to the location of the treasure. Bewildered by her find and unsure of where to start, Ima turned to the Exploration Society for help. And now, we need YOU - our top explorers - to solve the clues and uncover the long-lost Norman treasure. Who knows? It might just be the key to returning the loot to its rightful owners, or rather, their descendants!
