Geocache Description:

This is one of a series of ten Church Micros in the Northern section of Brighton & Hove, leading to a Bonus. In order to complete the Bonus cache, you will need to collect a clue at each of the locations. These are not in the caches themselves, but in or near the grounds of the places of worship.


All Saints Church is the Anglican parish church of Patcham, an ancient Sussex village which is now part of the English city of Brighton and Hove. A place of worship has existed on the hilltop site for about 1,000 years, but the present building has Norman internal features and a 13th-century exterior. A church was known to exist at the time of the Domesday Book, and the nave and parts of the chancel of the present building date from the 12th century. It was extensively restored in the 19th century, during which a 13th-Century wall painting of Christ in Judgement was discovered above the chancel arch, hidden under 30 layers of whitewash and the remains of two later paintings; it may be one of the oldest such murals in England, but it was repainted after its rediscovery. The building's plain exterior contrasts with its well-preserved and, in parts, ancient interior whose features include wall paintings and stone memorials, and its 14th Century decorated Gothic windows. In the 13th century, a narrow tower was built at the west end, with a broach spire and thin lancet windows characteristic of the era.

At this church, you will find the bonus container somewhere nearby, but first you will have to find the final clues for the co-ordinates. You will need the Information telephone number from the main church noticeboard = (01273)55R15T.
