The Search for the Sunken Treasure - Will YOU Claim the Riches?

Albie Twitching, a keen bird watcher, was exploring the Ribble estuary in Lytham when he stumbled upon a rare black-tailed godwit. But in his excitement, he failed to notice the receding tide and was stranded on the mud, like a sitting duck. Just when it seemed like his luck had run out, Albie spotted a bottle buried in the mud. Inside, he found a map and notebook containing clues to the long-lost treasure of the sunken ship, The Golden Shrimp. The answers to these clues are scattered around Lytham, waiting to be discovered by our most intrepid adventurers.
