Geocache Description:

Church Micro 1885...Wissington

This cache is located along the scenic Stour Valley Path. A gentle walk in a beautiful area. Parking available at Bear Street, Nayland (N51 58.305, E000 51.819) for the trail, or for a quick cache n' dash park at the church itself.

This is the third in our series of eight caches placed along the Stour Valley path. Each cache can be done individually or as part of the trail.

The given co-ordinates are that of the Church of St Mary the Virgin, Wiston. From here you will be able to find the information needed to complete the co-ordinates of the cache location. The retrieval of this information will not take long and you do not need to stray from the public footpath. The cache container is located a short distance away but not within the churchyard, why not take a little time out to take a look at this beautiful church before going on to the cache.
