Geocache Description:

A short off set multi cache set at All Saints Church Norton Bavant near Warminster.

Local history shows that there was a church at Norton Bavant as early as the mid 12th century. The existing church, dedicated in 1364, stands just inside the park gates of Norton Bavant Manor. Over the years the church has been extensively added to and only the tower and the arch to the chapel pre date the modifications undertaken during a major rebuild in the 1800s.

Start at the listed co ordinates. In what year did Julia Torrence erect the gates? = 1A9B

Second Stage: N51 11.325 W002 08.019 - How old was Gerald Sandys Kaye when he died? = 8C

Third Stage: N51 11.337 W002 08.058 - How good was John of Norton? = D

When did John depart this world? = 2E January 1F63

The cache is located at N51 11.(F-E)(C)(A-B) W002 07.(F+B)(E*D)(A-F)

If anybody would like to expand this series please do, I would just ask that you could let sadexploration know first so he can keep track of the church numbers and names to avoid duplication.
