Geocache Description:


This is a two-stage multicache. Stage one involves collecting some information, then you should be able to find your way to the cache at stage two.

The above coordinates will take you to Holy Trinity Church. Most of the church dates from the 13th century, although some parts are from the 12th century and it was added to in the Victorian era. A lightning strike in the 18th century demolished the previously existing spire, and left us with the stump on the tower.

Sunday services are held regularly - please be respectful if a service is in progress. The church is open during daylight hours and you might want to pop inside to have a look at the medieval carvings, including a baffling one of a monkey with her baby.

Once you have perused the church to your satisfaction, you need to find the leaning stone of Jane's beloved husband. Take note of the year of his death, ABCD, and the age at which he died, EF. You will find the cache a short walk away at:

N 052 (A+C) (F-A) . (BxC) (C+D) (E-A)

W 001 (C+D) (E-A) . (D+E) (B-D) (A+F)
