Geocache Description:

St Aidens is a George Heritage Trust Site.

St. Aidan’s church is one of the oldest buildings in Wilderness, which was named after an Irish saint, who was part of the missionary drive from Scotland and England.

The church bell was salvaged from the SS Thorne, which was wrecked in fog off Robben Island on 18th May 1831 and presented to St. Aidan’s by the Piggott family in 1951.

A 1952 Settler's Monument was erected by the Lakes Committee in Wilderness to commemorate the founding of the European settlement in South Africa on 6 April 1652.
