This Norman church is the oldest building in Gillingham, and although the "Green" on which it is situated is now a small paved area in the urban sprawl, the church and churchyard are still a peaceful and pleasant haven away from the local busyness. You can easily find more information about the church, its activities and its history on its website, which you can find using any search engine.
Alternatively there is an information board about the history of the area in the cemetery behind the church, and the noticeboard next to the side door will be able to tell you when you are likely to be able to go inside as well should you wish to.
As this is a very urban area, I‘m afraid the cache you are looking for is a nano. Parking is on-road and is not restricted so shouldn‘t be a problem. The posted co-ordinates are taken from just inside the church gate. The cache isn‘t very far away but you will need to walk around the churchyard a little to get the actual co-ordinates. Please note, when replacing the log with this type of nano it is really helpful if you roll it up tight and put it IN THE LID before screwing the bottom on. That way it will seal closed properly and the next person doesn't have to fish damp and/or squashed up paper out of the bottom. Thank you :)
So:
A= The number of gates at the front entrance to the churchyard
B= The information board inside the two iron gates near the cream house (see clue D) tells you that John Featherby, buried in the cemetery, was the first elected mayor of the new Borough of Gillingham in 190B
C= According to the same information board, Will Adams was baptised here in September 156C
D = The big cream house just inside the cemetery, to the south-east of the church, was built in Anno Domini 187D
E = Above the lych gate at the front entrance to the churchyard, the Domesday Book memorial plaque celebrates the anniversary from 1086 to 1E86
The final cache location is at:
N 51 AB.CBB
E 000 BB.DBE
