Church Micro 2415…Farncombe Traditional Geocache

This cache has been archived.

hofficoffi: This one has gone missing a few too many times. I'm also not happy with the location - never really have been - it is overlooked far too much at almost any time of day. I may place another nearby but think a multi is the best option for this CM. If anyone wants to grab the CM and place one themselves before I get around to it, feel free - it would be good to have it carry on.

Geocache Description:

St John's – Farncombe

A quick drive-by church micro. A 35mm film cannister attached to something with a magnet.

The difficulty should be 1 but I've increased it due to a high muggle presence at many times of the day and night. Be especially wary about the kebab munching and kebab selling muggles who have a very fine view if they are looking in your direction.

St John's Church was completed and consecrated in 1849 and was designed by Sir George Gilbert Scott.

In the book "The Buildings of England: Surrey" (1971 - Ian Nairn and Nicholas Pevsner) the church is described as "Dull"

The building underwent a major reordering in the early 1970s when the old High Altar was abandoned for worship in favour of a westward-facing nave altar, several rows of pews were moved round, and the chancel screen removed. Messers Nairn and Pevsner's opinions of the changes are unrecorded.


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
