The Church of St Peter More
The cache is NOT at the listed coordinates but has been placed within or close to the village. Please remember the lanes around here are quite narrow, so if you have children or dogs with you please keep them and yourselves safe at all times.
The coordinates are for parking, which is roadside adjacent to the church.
The cache is NOT placed within the church boundary so no need to search for the container within its grounds.
The Rector is aware that fellow cachers will be seeking out clues from WITHIN the church , others though will not, so it will be down to yourselves to mention it or not. I realise that everyone will respect this peaceful place and I hope all entering enjoy the experience.
The church is not open 24/7, and at time of writing this description, the Rector advises me it is open during daylight hours 7 days a week. There are services held on the 2nd and 4th Sunday mornings of each month, so please bear these facts in mind prior to travelling to the location. Obviously I cannot guarantee there will be no change in the times that the church is open. Should it be found to be closed, could a write note be added advising the fact, adding the day and time.
I hope you enjoy the experience of visiting this church as much as I did. Upon entering there is a notice advising 'stairs to bell tower', should you wish to venture upwards this should not be attempted by the feint hearted, as a 17 rung ladder has to climbed to actually get to see the bells. Anyway, you will be fed up with my waffling on, so here are the questions you will have to answer in order to go find the cache!
The cache is located at N[a] [b+c].[d-e] W00[f] [g+h].[j][k][l]
