Geocache Description:


Upper Bramdean Church

Whilst doing research for my Church Micro 1677 - Bramdean cache I found references to a 'tin church' in the woods.

This iron church was built in 1883 at the instigation of the Rev. Alfred Ceaser Bishop MA (the rector of Bramdean)in order that the commoners, charcoal burners and gypsy itinerants who used Bramdean Common were able to attend a church. His widow, Louisa Francis Katharine died in 1893 and endowed in her will monies to be held in trust to ensure the future of the church.


I found the church, and realised that there are 2 other caches nearby (one of which uses the church as a reference point).
The Geocaching Pirates
Rorys 9th Birthday Cache

Seeing as there are 2 multis here already I decided to make this cache a traditional. The church is very close by, so please take a little time to have a look. It's certainly a bit different to your usual churches.


Logging Etiquette: Geocache hiders sometimes go through a great deal of planning to place their caches. As a result, they'd like to hear your feedback on whether you liked or disliked any aspect of the hide, or if you feel that some cache maintenance is required.
Single word, acronym, or emoticon logs may be easier when you have a lot of caches to log, but it doesn't tell the hider or other finders anything about your adventure (or lack thereof) in finding the cache. Please keep this in mind when entering your log.


If anybody would like to expand to 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
