Geocache Description:


Church Micro 4532 - St. Helens, Pinxton

 photo cmpinxton_zps75891e3c.jpg

St Helens Church was built in the year 1299 from the remains of a Norman Castle; the old stone was used in the tower and chancel. The first Rector was Richard de Hereford in 1299.

Much of it was rebuilt in 1790 reusing the original materials, and only the west tower and west end of the old church remains. By 1890, it was so dilapidated that most of the services were held in the mission room. However in the following century it was repaired and a new porch and north aisle were added in 1939.
