Geocache Description:


This cache can be approached from a few different directions, each of which has its own pros and cons. The prettiest approach is from the village of Longstanton.

For most of its history Longstanton was split into two parishes: the larger Long Stanton All Saints to the north and the smaller Long Stanton St. Michael to the south. Longstanton is unusual among English villages in having two mediaeval churches - a reminder of its history as two parishes. The larger of the two churches, All Saints Church, is in the centre of the modern village and dates from the mid-14th Century, when it replaced an earlier church which was destroyed by a fire. St. Michael's Church, situated towards the south of the village, is the smaller and older of the two churches, having been built around 1230. It is notable as a rare example of a church with a thatched roof (one of only two surviving in Cambridgeshire), and is a Grade II listed building.

Longstanton is also the home of Longstanton Spice Museum, made famous by former Radio Norwich presenter, Alan Partridge.

Approaching from Longstanton you are likely to see a lot of rabbits (watch out for their holes on the path). If you are lucky you may see a deer, fox or even a rare black squirrel.

You are looking for a 380ml container which, in a previous life, provided a home for a well known sports drink.
