hello all
colin @ tina here
just to tell you all that we found this isis and below is our story
as most off us we did not have a clue where this was and i had google every part of the clue and got no where and really had given up on this one
then one tina was watching more 4 and time team was doing a thing on iron age hillforts and while watching they were filming from danebury hillfort which is near andover hampshire i google it and looked a really good place so i looked it up on channel 4,

having rembered the clue about a 50p stump we started looking for one that looked like a 50p hopeing that my chance we had found the right place and then we did see our photo

http://i120.photobucket.com/albums/o173 ... A53226.jpg we went home very wet
not giving up on this i had to work out the clue now , then bing posted that "iron-aged was to used as one word " i kept looking at the clue then i got it
it was a code
taking the first letter of the first word then the first letter of 3rd word and so on as showed below

Look for the 50p tree stump.
this spelling danebury hillfort
so yes it was the right place what a bit of luck and thanks time team
so back to the clues and agine bing gave us a clue 2. Two lines are 100% TRUE,
Two lines are NOT.
so we knew the 50p stump was ture but what other one could be
iorn_aged didnot google so was it wrong
that leave two
now after seeing the stumb nerby was some beech hills and they had lots of roots so could it be that one
so last week we were on out holiday and not going anywhere we said we go to the hillfort for another look
so off we go to the stump
and then start looking all round the roots of the beech tree near by and there it was tucked very tightly along side a roots cover by some leaves and pushed nearly out of sight in dirt oh yes we jumped found another what a feeling
http://i120.photobucket.com/albums/o173 ... A53229.jpg you can just see the beech tree and the root in the top of the photo hope these links work
