Geocache Description:


**** The Church ****

The large cruciform church is mostly early C14, but there are signs of earlier work, which is possibly C11 and C13.  A fire in 1576 was the cause of much rebuilding, including the roofs.

In 1935 the spire was rebuilt after storm damage  and it was presumably at this time that it reverted to a copper covering in place of the slates .  The north porch dates from 1938.

 

 

**** The Cache ****

At the published co-ordinates there's an ancient artifact, which is hopefully unoccupied:
   A = number of ankle holds.

Now go to waypoint Gordon Douglas Fraser

   BCDE = year of Violet's death.

 

Now go THROUGH the gate at waypoint Gate, in this section of the churchyard you are looking for a bench, which is unlike all the other benches in this section, which was placed in memory of Henry Warren.

  FGHJ= the year commemorated on the bench.

The cache can be found a couple of  hundred metres away at the co-ords below.
 

N50 5(A+A).(D-E)CH,  W000 5(E/H).CEJ
