Church Micro 3886…Southbourne Multi-cache

This cache has been archived.

mellers: Crikey! [:O]

Many thanks to the previous couple of finders for their detailed feedback - but given the state that the route to GZ is now in (I think that has to be a record for 'number of times the word poo is mentioned in one log! [;)]), I think it's time for this one to go. I'm certainly never keen to visit a cache myself, in an area like that, so I think it's only fair to future searchers that this one says cheerio.

Thanks to all who visited and thanks to those who provided feedback which enabled me to deal with issues promptly. I will go down to GZ itself, in the next week or so, to collect the container [:)].

St John's Church, Southbourne is a busy church at the heart of its community. Regrettably, I have been unable to find out much about its history online, but if any cachers are able and/or willing to provide some verifiable information I will be pleased to include it!

The above co-ordinates will bring you to the large cross in the south east corner of the churchyard, where you will find a plaque commemorating the fallen of the Great War. The inscription begins "In memory of those". How many lines of inscription are on this plaque? = A

Now go to Stage 2 at N 50° 50.711 W 000° 54.513. Here you will find the south door of the church where there are two memorial plaques, one either side. Obtain the following information:

Mr Harris was associated with the church from 19BC until his death in 19DE

Mr King died in 19FG

The cache is located a short walk away at N 50° (B+G)(D-F).A(B-C)G W 000° ((F+G)*A).EB(E+B)
