This cache is placed near the Church of St Michael in the village of Creech St Michael. Creech St Michael is a village and civil parish in Somerset, three miles east of Taunton in the Somerset West and Taunton district. The parish straddles the M5 motorway and includes several scattered settlements. The Parish Church is probably the most ancient building in the Parish. Parts of the building date back to the 12th Century. The Church can be found at the southern end of the village. It came into the ownership of the priory of Montacute in 1362 and a vicar was appointed for the first time and the church was dedicated to St Michael.
We have given parking co-ords for the Canalside Parking Area which is only a short walk from the Church.
The cache is not at the posted co-ords.
