Geocache Description:

Cache placed at St Michaels Well close to Arthuret Church


park up close to the church and head across to this cache which is the other side of the church grounds. This is a small tub cache, large enough for swaps and trackables. Take care when going down the steps as these can be slippy and if it's been wet ground gets soggy In 573 AD the battle of Ardderyd took place between pagan and Christian forces, with the loss of over 80,000 men. The victor, Rhydderch, is credited with introducing Christianity to the Longtown area, and shortly afterwards St Kentigern, or St Mungo, first appears in this area. St Michael's Well at Arthuret is one of many baptismal springs likely to have been used by the saint.
