'Historic Hampstead Treasure Hunt' - can you find the treasure?

Come along on Sunday 9th July for a treasure hunt around historic Hampstead!

About the area
The word 'Hampstead' comes from the Anglo-Saxon words 'ham' and 'stede', which means, and is a cognate of the Modern English "homestead".

Hampstead is an affluent area of London and is known for its intellectual, liberal, artistic, musical, literary associations and for its Heath. The village of Hampstead has more millionaires within its boundaries than any other area of the UK.

How it works
Come along at 1:30pm and you will be randomly divided into teams of 4 people (or you can choose your own team beforehand). For fairness, any London Guides or Blue Badge Tour Guides won't be allowed to take part.

Then each team will be given 15-20 written clues which you have to find the answers for. It's up to your team to work together to find the answers. You can answer them in any order and you will be provided with a map of the area to help you. It's not a race, so you can take your time getting to know the area.

All the answers to the clues will be found on statues or blue plaques around Hampstead.

The treasure hunts are a good way to get to know the history of an area whilst meeting and getting to know new people!

Prizes
The team to get the most correct answers and then return to base (a local pub) will win book vouchers for Waterstones bookshops of £10 per person.
If more than one team gets the top score, there will be a tie break question back at the pub.

A £5 gift voucher per person will be given to each member of the team coming in second place and prizes will be given to each member of the team with the best team name.

Cost
Its £6 per person to take part (payable by cash on the day), apart from Full Members where it is free!

To become a Full Member, go to: www.meetup.com/london_cultureseekers/dues

We will be marking the scores back at the pub at 4:30pm, so it should all be over by 4:45pm.

Look out for the red & blue 'London Cultureseekers' group sign/flag. If you can't see us, please text.
