Church Micro 4529…Churchill in Oswaldslow Multi-cache

This cache has been archived.

dadu 13: When the cache was originally placed there was a large series that went right past the Church, the reason most of us in those days, became aware of the Church, and thus finding somewhere relatively close to place a cache was problematical.
The cache and the Church have stood the test of time, but the series is now archived, so options are greater for somebody else to place a cache in a better position.
Thanks to all those who visited the cache [;)]

Geocache Description:

The church was declared redundant on 10 February 1999 and is now in the care of the Churches Conservation Trust.


St Michael’s at Churchill is a small church in a tiny village. It is mainly of the 14th century, although fragments from an earlier building are built into its walls. The font is 15th century and there is good woodwork of the 17th century. Two stone carvings built into the sill of the north window appear to be parts of a lion. The low chancel screen and the lectern came from Great Malvern Priory in 1910, the year when a major restoration of St Michael’s was carried out. The small bell-cote contains two bells, one dating from the 15th century.

To find the cache, you must first find the notice board inside the Church, to your left after entering. On it you will find a date DD/MM/YEAR which translates to AB/CD/EFGH and a value in pounds which is J.

Use those values in this formula to find the cache, which is just a short walk from the Church.
