Milton GeoCache Series
After our recently placed GeoCache Series at Great Western Park (GWP) (cache #1-11, 14, 17-19, 30-32, 35, 38), Didcot (cache #12-13, 15-16, 20-25, 29, 33-34, 41-42, 44-45, 47-48, 53), Harwell (cache #26, 36-37, 43, 46, 54-55), Chilton (cache #27-28), Sutton Courtenay (cache #39) and Milton (cache #40, 49-52, 56), we decide to place a few more caches in other parts of Didcot and surrounding villages, in order to honour local heros, and to reflect our rich local history, stories and heritage. We hope you will enjoy these new caches and may also learn something new when you are caching, thank you!
Milton #57 - Milton Methodist Church (Officially known as Church Micro 10764...Milton - Methodist)
Milton Methodist Church is a modern building with facilities, car parking and a large paddock at the rear which makes it a venue for some circuit events.
The Morning service is each Sunday with additional special services occasionally. As the majority of the membership comes from the surrounding villages, some outreach work is done to encourage the local villagers to come into the church – primarily the Lunch Club.
There are also occasional activity sessions run jointly with the Anglican church in the village for children to come and have a go at various things linked to the season, finishing with a story, song and prayer.
The church building is also shared with The Coptic Orthodox Church in Oxfordshire.
About this multi-cache:
At the published coordinates, you will be standing in front of a large information board. Firstly, find the Sunday Worship time, which is AB.CD am.
Secondly, please find the telephone number of the Minister, which is 01235 EFG HJK.
The final coordinates are a short distance away at:
N51 37. ( G * H + B - D ) ( C / A - B + D ) ( H + K )
W001 18. ( E / J - H ) ( F + G ) ( E / K * F / A )
The checksum of all the digits in the final coordinates is 47.
Please also note:
Please bring your own pen, and open & close the cache lid carefully so the cache and log book can survive longer.
Please also replace exactly as found due to obvious reason, and please be careful with the possible thorns and stinging nettles. Long sleeves, trousers, and gloves are recommended.
Thank you and enjoy GeoCaching!
