Y8c: Calling a day on this one.

Not particularly happy with the location and short on maintenance time.

Hopefully someone else can fill the gap in the future.

Geocache Description:


Church Micro 3678 - St. John the Baptist, Tibshelf



The present church dates from the early 13th century when the De Heriz family held the manor. In 1492 the tower was built in the perpendicular style but the church was practically re-built in 1729 (with a north side aisle added). In 1878 saw the addition of an acre of land to the churchyard and another programme in 1887 rebuilt the nave and enlarged the aisle. In 1910 fire destroyed the chancel, which was rebuilt with a south aisle and organ chamber.
The church is dedicated to St John the Baptist although occasionally styled the church of St Peter.
