Co-ords for GC2WPD4 - Along Long Wood are in this cache
Parish Peregrination is intended as a circular walking route, as opposed to a cache and dash circuit, linking our additions to sadexploration's Church Micro series here at Goodnestone ( GC2VNYW - CM 1820), Nonington (GC2VPVE - CM 1822), Womenswold (GC2WDV5- CM 1859), Barfrestone (GC2VKH4 - CM 1817), Chillenden (GC2VKF6 - CM 1815),and Knowlton (GC2TEA6 - CM 1786).
The route is intended to start at and will be described from Parish Peregrination - Rosings. The entire route is approximately 14 miles (22.5km). It will take in the 6 fore mentioned Church Micro's plus 23 additional 'trail' caches. There is an opportunity to split the route into two, one of 6.5 miles (10.5km) the other 8 miles (13km). The route is via public rights of way with a number of moderate climbs and descents, BUT does require some quiet lane walking where the usual care will be needed. There are NO FTF prizes as such, although a number of the small caches only contain a very neat LED Torch, so PLEASE Trade Up - Trade Even - Or Don't Trade these items folks.
Edward Austen Knight
Jane Austen's connections to Goodnestone Park House have been mentioned previously on Parish Peregrination - Rosings, but it was Rowling House, then part of the Goodnestone Park Estate, that her newlywed brother Edward Austen and his wife Elizabeth called home, and where Jane Austen stayed on her visits. It remained Edwards home until he inherited the opulent Godmersham Park estate nr Ashford. It was during one of her visits in 1869 that Jane Austen is believed to have written part of 'First Impressions' later to be published as 'Pride and Prejudice'.
