Church Micro 3568...Witchford Traditional Geocache

This cache has been archived.

Railwayfan: Due to a change of circumcises and maintenance becoming too regular I have had made the decision to archive these caches as I cannot justify the cost of traveling here to sort the constant problems that caches keep going missing and or damaged.
Where the cache was still in place this has now been removed but there were several locations where the cache seemed to be missing.

Geocache Description:

An easy-to-find cache near the Church of St.Andrew in Witchford, a small village lying just off the A142 west of Elly. The village hosts the Grunty Fen Half Marathon road race, which has been staged annually in the village since 1991. The race begins and ends at Witchford Village College and involves two laps into the nearby Grunty Fen.




The church of St. Andrew, built of rubblestones and dressed limestone, has a three-stage tower dating from the 13thc . The tower is short, barely reaching above the roofline of the nave and shows evidence of 18thc gault brick repairs. . The aisleless nave and chancel date from 1376 In the chancel there is a classic four-petal design in the tracery of the east window, and the small nave windows are decorated with characteristically curved stonework. There is no clerestory, and the nave walls are very low – the roofline barely higher than the window tops

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.
