Geocache Description:

A very small micro tube traditional cache

This used to be a multi-cache under the same CM number. If you found that one please feel free to find this one.


  • The church of St. Peter consists of a chancel, nave, north aisle, south aisle, west tower and south porch. The walls are of rubble with stone dressings, and the roofs are covered with tile and slates
  • The church is not mentioned in the Domesday survey of 1086, but by 1130 a small church, consisting of a chancel, nave of two bays amd a north aisle, existed here. Shortly afterwards, this was lengthened by the addition of a western bay. The chancel was rebuilt soon after 1265; in about 1300, a south aisle with its arcade and a south porch, were added.
  • At the end of the 14th century, the western tower and spire were erected, and a hundred years later the north aisle was rebuilt, and a clearstory added to the nave.
  • The spire was rebuilt in 1860.

You will need to park near the road as the track to the church is a private road which only allows pedestrian access to the church.
