A cache and dash by the old church of Saint Nicholas at Oddington,well known for its magnificent medieval wall paintings.
The main wall painting in the church is the 14th century'Doom',dated to about 1340 it is 32ft long and 15ft high.
In the upper part is the seated figure of Christ,attended by Angels and Apostles.Below Angels blowing trumpets summon the dead from their graves.To the right the lost are being propelled by devils into the jaws of hell.
Nearby some of the torments of the damned are depicted with fearful realism inc a man suspended from a gibbet and a group of persons being boiled in a cauldron.
There is parking near the church and the cache,which is a film canister with a logbook and pencil.
If the church is open do have a look inside.
