Church Micro 12085
Bratton
Church of St. James The great
A simple two stage multi that shouldn’t be too tricky to solve, at posted co- ordinates there is a plaque “in memory of Paul muller, Church warden ABCD - EFGH” write down the missing numbers and go to stage two
Stage Two, there is also a plaque here “Sunday 20th September IJKL”
Now solve N51 A C-E-H . BCG W002 07 . K-L-I 0 0 to find the cache.
| Logging Etiquette: Geocache hiders sometimes go through a great deal of planning to place their caches. As a result, they'd like to hear your feedback on whether you liked or disliked any aspect of the hide, the journey or location, or if you feel that some cache maintenance is required. Single word, acronym, or "copy and paste" logs may be easier when you have a lot of caches to log, but it doesn't tell the hider or other finders anything about your adventure (or lack thereof) in finding the cache. Please keep this in mind when entering your log. |
St James church is set on the slope of a combe, apart from the village of Bratton. Quite why it was built away from the village centre is a bit of a mystery. It was always the parish church of Bratton, but also served a small hamlet of Littlestoke, which has now disappeared. Littlestoke grew up between Bratton village and the nearby Iron Age hillfort of Bratton Camp.
Accessibility
The physical cache is neither wheelchair, or pushchair accessible unfortunately. The church, however, is accessable if you would still like a look around the area.
