Geocache Description:

A tricky urban cache where I spent most of my time in 2011 and 2012 when I was curate of this parish Church.

This cache has been in conception for some months, and now I've finally got it hidden and ready for crafty cachers to hunt out.

This cache is hidden where I used to minister from primarily as curate of St Matthew's Anglican Church. There is plenty of parking available and loads of nooks and crannies to explore where this geocache could be hidden. {Please note Cache is not hidden in the church wall. At U.N.C.L.E'S suggestion I am stating this so that it will not be subject to unnecessary search and possible damage.} You'll need to bring your own pen, there isn't room in the cache for one.

This geocache is hidden on Hope St in a high muggle zone. There are a number of houses overlooking the hide spot for this geocache, the facilities here are used by groups throughout the week, and Sunday morning from about 0900-1330 the place is jam packed.

The container is hidden within 7m of the co-ords. The urban buildup means that GPS accuracy is pretty dicey (the best I've had here is 7m), which contributes to the difficulty rating. It is NOT hidden in the orange cylinder by the bottom floor of the church offices. This orange cylinder with a grey cap contains electrical wires - if you interfere with it this cache might be your last!

Cache is placed with permission of the vicar, and staff members know about it. Their office windows all have a great view down into the car park, so if you spot them watching smile, wave, and carry on your hunt, no end to run away.

PLEASE do not reveal the cache location in your logs, logs which do so will be deleted.

Hope to see you up on Hope soon.
