The Mysterious Treasure of Seaham - Can YOU Uncover Its Hidden Secrets?

The Exploration Society has received word that a diary belonging to Victorian mine owner, Sir Lumpsa Coal, has been unearthed during recent excavations in Seaham. The diary tells of a strange discovery during a regular dig in one of the town's mines - a unique urn rumoured to have belonged to the Norse god Odin! Scared of what would happen if his miners realised the true value of the artefact, Coal buried it on a secret island off the Durham Coastline. Luckily, he left clues and a map in his diary pointing to its hidden home, alongside a bunch of false locations to distract treasure seekers. We need help from TOP Adventurers (YOU!) to follow the curious clues and pinpoint the hiding spot where this amazing lost relic can be discovered. Good luck!
