Saint John's Colston Bassett
 
 
St. John's Church, Colston Bassett was erected in 1892 by the architect Arthur Brewill.

However, the construction was of poor quality and the church needed substantial restoration. This was undertaken in 1934 by Charles Marriott Oldrid Scott. The Bishop of Southwell Rt. Revd Henry Mosley re-opened the repaired building on 12 August 1936, at the same time as he instituted the new vicar, the Rev. John Booth

I accept that this church is a bit of a poor cousin alongside the nearby St Marys, but the church stands majestically in the centre of this lovely village and is close to some fantastic amenities.

Please note that the Church Micro series is the largest Geocache series in the World. There is a dedicated web-site for them and associated Geocache Challenge caches. The series is intended to bring Geocachers to all kinds of churches, and inform finders about them.
The nature of Churches generally means that they are close to other properties and unnoticed access can often be difficult. I have therefore placed Geocaches in places that afford easy access, but you may occasionally feel overlooked. I hope that you find the caches in good order and are able to enjoy the series.

If anybody would like to expand to the Church Micro 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
