Church Micro 7847...Little Wilbraham Traditional Geocache

A church micro in the pretty village of Little Wilbraham.

This description is taken from this webpage.

There has been a church on this site for over a thousand years. The nave has a small narrow window set into the wall which is over a metre thick and the construction here is typical of late saxon (approx 9^th century). The main body of the church however dates from the mid 13^th century.

The remains of a crusader cross can be seen on the north side showing the close links with the military orders during this period. The tower along with supporting abutments were added during the 14^th century and new windows were added. The south side of the chancel was reconstructed during the 15^th century and a new set of windows inserted in the perpendicular style.

This is our very first cache and it is located on the edge of a wildlife area known locally as “The Pits” where gravel was previously extracted.

Congratulations to firestars for a FTF on our first cache!
