Church Micro 7736...Fair Oak - St Swithun Wells Traditional Geocache

This cache has been archived.

One Man and his Bike: I put the replacement in last week - still a large, but checked it earlier this evening so I was happy it was OK to be re-enabled and it has been trashed again. I will put something back as a CM for this parish church, but not another large and since a housing development looks set to start soon...

Geocache Description:

A container close to St. Swithun Wells church on Allington Lane


This cache used to be a field puzzle but it broke. Press your finger in the hole on the back to pop out the log book.

For generations the Catholic community in the Fair Oak area of Hampshire was dependent for its leadership on the Wells family who owned Brambridge House on the road between Otterbourne and Twyford.

From Tudor times until the 18th century (when the house passed to their cousins, the Smythes who continued the catholic tradition) the family maintained a private chapel which served as a Mass Centre for local Catholics.

St Swithun Wells Church was consecrated in 1978.
