Geocache Description:


Bidborough Church was originally a medieval 10th century building but had much restoration by Ewan Christian in 1876.

The church stands on a steep knoll overlooking a marvellously green valley. The south doorway is Norman, although it was moved and reset when the church was enlarged in the nineteenth century. The chancel is tastefully furnished - light wooden panelling and a blue carpet. These compliment the start turns - windows designed by Burne Jones form Morris and Co. Beneath the tower hangs a lovely pendulum.

The following shows some interesting data from the 1851 Census:

Seating Capacity: 220

Morning Attendance: 118

Afternoon Attendance: 100

Cache is wheel chair friendly. Please be careful of the road.

“If anybody would like to expand to this series please do, I would just ask that you could let Sadexploration know first so he can keep track of the Church numbers and names to avoid duplication.

There is also a Church Micro Stats page found via the Bookmark list”
