Geocache Description:

An interesting Church in the centre of Leighton Buzzard Bedfordshire.
A very small tupperware type tub has been used. Please treat as a microcache. There is a small sputnick crystal from morroco for the first person to find it.

I have been thinking of a place for a cache in my hometown for quite a while. All Saints church sits in the centre of the town and has a very long history that dates back to medieval times. It is famous for having one of the tallest spires in the country and has some beautiful Kempe stained glass windows, which are well worth a look.
There are many other facts about the church, which are interesting including the organ and the church bells.
There is a cafe in the church, which is open during the day.
But there are many pubs close by for those who are not tea total.
The cache is in the Graveyard and is fairly well hidden, but It should not be too difficult for seasoned cacher`s.
Please park sensibly as the traffic wardens appear like Mr Ben.
If you visit the cache at night you may not gain access through the main gate.
If you do come at night Please be very careful as my favourite Mammal lives in the Graveyard.
They will frighten you, (which is ok) but you will frighten them (not ok).
The initial co-ordinates take you to the Main entrance area.
The information you require to complete the final cache co-ordinates are found here.

cache coordinates: N51.5486B W039.9A1

Were A = how many hundreds of years the church has stood on the site.

Were B = How many hundreds of feet high is the spire.

This is the forth time I will have replaced this cache. I have decided to move the location slightly so as to stop the container being found by the local wild life. I have also made it a regular sized container so that Mr Squirrel will find it hard to move.
I am sorry that the previous finders have lost there log entries. But as it is Know in a different location you may want to visit the site again.
Good luck.

Cheers,
