Parish Peregrination is intended as a circular walking route, as opposed to a cache and dash circuit, linking our additions to sadexploration's Church Micro series here at Goodnestone ( GC2VNYW - CM 1820), Nonington (GC2VPVE - CM 1822), Womenswold (GC2WDV5- CM 1859), Barfrestone (GC2VKH4 - CM 1817), Chillenden (GC2VKF6 - CM 1815),and Knowlton (GC2TEA6 - CM 1786).
The route is intended to start at and will be described from Parish Peregrination - Rosings. The entire route is approximately 14 miles (22.5km). It will take in the 6 fore mentioned Church Micro's plus 23 additional 'trail' caches. There is an opportunity to split the route into two, one of 6.5 miles (10.5km) the other 8 miles (13km). The route is via public rights of way with a number of moderate climbs and descents, BUT does require some quiet lane walking where the usual care will be needed. There are NO FTF prizes as such, although a number of the small caches only contain a very neat LED Torch, so PLEASE Trade Up - Trade Even - Or Don't Trade these items folks.
PLEASE DO NOT ATTEMPT TO DRIVE UP TO THIS CACHE UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES
From Parish Peregrination - Finiss Wood use Waypoint 'Green' to find your way to Woolage Green. With the village pub to your back head along Forstal Road until you reach Woolage Farm on your right. Ignore the first farm entrance, but turn right at the second entrance. This is not a PROW but it is a ' Other Routes With Public Access' route. Walk between the buildings and turn left along the track, following the co-ords for Parish Peregrination - White City.
White City
As you walk along this track you will see off to your left, the distinctive white painted houses of Woolage Village. Originally named White City, they were built in the 1920's for the mining families pouring into the area to work in the new Kent Coalfields. White City, like nearby Aylesham, never expanded to the large numbers of properties envisaged at the time. Most miners living here worked at the former Snowdown Colliery to the north of the village.
