Church Micro 6400...Greywell RG27 1DA Multi-cache

This cache has been archived.

Danes Hunter: Due to Arthritis I now can’t open caches, or roll up the logs, so I’ve decided to give up Geocaching.
Therefore reluctantly I have archived all my caches.
Thank you all for 15 years of fun, taking me to some fantastic places that without Geocaching I would never have seen.

Bye!
Danes Hunter

Geocache Description:

St Mary the Virgin, is an ancient structure of flint with stone quoins and dressings in the Norman and early English styles.  It consists of a chancel, nave, porch and tower surmounted by wooden belfry containing four bells.

Most cars now have a Satnav fitted, so I thought you might like the postcode for this church.
RG27 1DA

This church does not have a car park, which means you have to park in the road, please park carefully so as not to upset the locals.

If you have time walk down the path behind the church to the bench, where you can sit and admire the River Whitewater.

At the time of the Domesday Survey in 1086 it is thought that the Chapel of St. Mary, beside the Whitewater, was one of the two churches within the Manor of Odiham mentioned in the survey. The church is of Norman origin and was built in the 12th century.

Restored in 1870, it still boasts many old features, the most important of which is the early 16th century rood-screen, made of carved oak which before the restoration was used as a men’s gallery with rood loft and circular stairs.  The narrow 13th Century Early English chancel-arch is also a prominent feature and one will also find, on the stonework to the left outside the church door, visible remains of several consecration crosses dating back to the period of the Crusades. Church Cottage, beside the lych-gate on The Street, is believed to have been originally the priest's lodgings.
