Geocache Description:


Winkfield Row Methodist Church is situated in a row of houses opposite Lambrook Haileybury School. It was opened in 1854. As such, it is the oldest Methodist church in the area. The nearby Italian restaurant used to be a pub and was owned by the lead singer of 1970s band Mungo Jerry (of "In the Summertime" fame for those not old enough to know).

The cache can be found at: N 51 26.AAA W 42.XYZ where:

A = number of boot scrapers outside the church door (solve in the field by going to the published coordinates)

XYZ is solved by some easy desk research. The name of the former pub mentioned above. If it is

The Hungry Horse, then XYZ = 472

The Black Horse, then XYZ = 559

The White Horse, then XYZ = 951

The Running Horse, then XYZ = 424

If anybody would like to expand to this series please do, I would just ask that you could let Sadexploration know first so he can keep track of the Church numbers and names to avoid duplication. There is also a Church Micro Stats page found via the Bookmark list
