Hi all,
when I first put the map up I also included a note with directions on how to locate a lair if you had the number, but it seems to have become separated from the map. So here it is again ....

As garngad rightly says, if you can locate a nearby War Grave, and it's number, then the direction the row is numbered it's quite easy to get close to the lair you're looking for. Another method I use, if you find a stone which is numbered, as in photo above, I work on the theory it's 'one pace' between lairs. So start at say 721, count 43 paces and you should be 'very' close to 764.

If all else fails, as already stated, the groundsmen are normally around during the week and are extremely helpful.

good luck
