Geocache Description:


Holy Trinity, Cuckfield

The coordinates will take you close to the church but the cache is NOT at the published coordinates. The cache is not on or within the church boundary so please do not look there.


 

Cuckfield Church

Cuckfield has a pretty church which is over 900 years old and for many years was the only church in Cuckfield. It is situated on the south side of Cuckfield with views from the churchyard to the South Downs.

It has a vault roof, constructed of traditional Horsham stone. The stone on the roof weighs approximately 81tonnes.

The paintings on the ceiling of the Holy Trinity church were done in the late 19th century by C. E. Kempe. He also designed four of the stained glass windows.

The font dates from the 13th century.
Substantial remains of the first church clock (1667) with associated details hang on the north wall of the tower. The present clock dates from 1872.
The lychgates are listed buildings.
 


The cache is within 3 metres from where the above photo was taken, the cache only has a log book so don’t forget your pen. Good luck!


If anybody would like to expand this series please do, I would just ask that you could let Sadexploration know first at churchmicro@gmail.com so he can keep track of the Church numbers and names to avoid duplication.

There is also a Church Micro Stats & Information page found via the Bookmark list
