Geocache Description:


This Micro has been placed close to the Church and is available 24/7.... Please be considerate to the locals when parking and finding the cache.
The cache is overlooked a little so stealth and slight of hand will be required. Also beware of muggles!


The bridge has now been demolished completely along with the cache so a new cache and location is up and running. It is a short distance from the church. Also note the plaque on the nearby Market Cross which has some interesting history.

The Church of All Saints at Nunney, Somerset, England, is a Grade 1 listed building dating from the 12th century.

 

It was probably built on the site of an earlier Saxon or Norman church from which a Saxon Cross and Norman Font can still be seen.

A 15th century wagon or Barrel Vault used to cover the nave however the timber rotted and it was demolished in 1957.

A temporary roof was installed and hidden by a suspended ceiling. Plans are being drawn up to replace the roof and fundraising is under way.

Sir John Delamare and other lords of Nunney Castle are buried in the church.

The Anglican parish is part of the benefice of Postlebury within the archdeaconry of Wells.

The Church is often open and well worth a look see...
