Geocache Description:

A quick Church Micro multi cache starting at Holy Rood Church, Pevensey Bay


Part of the Church Micro series started by sadexploration in November 2007

The cache is not at the published coordinates, but instead you should find yourself near a plaque placed in loving memory of Maureen Weekes.

The church does have plenty of parking outside.

To find the cache you will need to find the date on the plaque, and those letters are used in the formula for calculating the cache’s coordinates:

AB-C-DC

The cache is located a short distance – but a longer walk away at:

N50.(A+1)(D-1).5C4

E000.2B.(C-1)4A

This church forms part of the Christ the King, Langney, with Holy Rood, Pevensey Bay Parish which was created as a parish on the 3 December 1989.

The land for the construction of the church was acquired in 1960 from local man Keith Martin, who donated the land as a memorial to his deceased son. Building work, however, did not start for another six years but finally after being consecrated by Bishop Cashman on the 4th May 1966, the church was opened for the first time on 5th November 1967.

In the church there is a splendid statue to St Thomas A' Becket, whom it is said, had lived at nearby Pevensey Castle.

Thanks to Gman4633 for help on the church history

The cache contains a log and pencil only, without room for swaps or TBs.

It’s a small container, and reachable from a wheelchair if you can manage a slightly uneven surface. Take care - it’s placed very near a main road – where the speed limit is 30 – but seems to be regularly exceeded according to the nearby speed indicator sign.
