Geocache Description:


St Mary the Virgin is one of the dozen or so grandest of Norfolk's churches. The present building was begun in the early 14th century and remodelled in the late 14th century, but the majority of the building appears to be perpendicular in style. The chancel alone stands out significantly, with a large five-light decorated style east window. The money for this splendid and impressive building came from a number of donors and is the result of the thriving wool business that saw Norfolk reach the peak of its prosperity and influence. Cloth was produced in Worstead from at least the 13th century, but Flemish weavers in the 14th century expanded trade dramatically. Although the trade peaked in the 14th century, there was still revenue enough to support the raising of the clerestory and the installation of a hammerbeam roof in the 15th century. Inside the church is no less interesting, with a mix of decorated and perpendicular features along with a late medieval screen of particular interest.

The coordinates take you to the south side porch entrance. On the gate are two warning signs use the last six numbers of the left hand sign as ABCDEF. 

The cache can be found at N52 (F) (D+E). (B) (D-1) (A-E) E001 (E-1) (C). (C+D) (E+F) (A-1)
