Geocache Description:

Here you will find my 53rd Church Micro.

Your looking for a small screw top container.
There is a small stream to cross at GZ but dry when placing the cache.
I put may require wading in the attributes but I doubt it will be even in winter.



Be sure to find Blind House - Buckland Dinham GC2X80P while your here.

At the page coordinates well not quite I had to keep away a bit, so as not to cover the Blind House cache on the map, note the church porch inside there is a sign
"IN LOVING MEMORY OF EVA KATE CRAY"
Upon it you need to note the numbers of the two dates call these, A,B,C,D & E,F,G,H.
The cache is not at the above co-ordinates use the puzzle below to calculate the co-ordinates to locate it.
N 51, 15.B (F-G) (F-G) + A + E) W 002, 21.6 (G-4) (D+H)-F). .

Please note: The wire gates on the church porch are to keep the swallows out, not people. They are not locked.

So onto the church description.
