Geocache Description:

This is my first attempt at placing a cache so I hope you find it an enjoyable experience. Parking is available along the road here.

When you arrive at the Co-Ordinates you will be standing outside:

The Parish Church Of

Thorpe St. Andrew Episcopi



 I drive past here quite often and I'm always impressed by the sight of the two churches here, the old and the new, so I thought I would share this vision with you all. While you are here, why not try your luck on the nearby River Green Multi Cache. There doesn't seem to be much information available about this church.



This Church stands beside the River Yare on the eastern side of Norwich, approx. 3 miles from the city centre, and overlooks the Yare Valley.

THE PARISH CHURCH is a grade II listed building and is situated on the North side of Yarmouth Road, opposite River Green. It was consecrated in 1866, with the tower following in 1881. It replaces an earlier church which was largely demolished. The setting for the present church is very picturesque with the ruin of its predecessor in a well-kept churchyard. The church is a large building with all the necessary adjuncts added at the rear. If you have the time, the stained glass windows are spectacular. In front of the victorian building are the ruins of the medieval church destroyed by fire in the nineteenth century.



 
You are looking for a lipstick canister. Stealth is required here as it is a high muggle area. Please make sure the container lid is properly closed as the hide location is liable to be wet over the winter months, and replace as found. Thank You.

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.
