St Michael & All Angels, Adbaston

 

Church History

The church is of C12 origin, evidence for which are the restored C12 chancel windows. In the C13-C14 the church was extended by the addition of a north aisle and a west tower. The church was restored in 1885, from which period are the roofs and alterations to the nave arcade to accommodate an organ. The porch was added in 1894.

Church Micro Series

I have enjoyed a number of caches in this series in other parts of the country and there are still relatively few in Staffordshire and East Shropshire. Hopefully the caches that we place will encourage other Staffordshire-based CO's to contribute to the world's largest series. 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.
