Geocache Description:



Another in the very popular series of Church Micros started by Sadexploration.

Christ Church was built in 1854 as the parish church of Forest Hill, although its tower with tall spire, which is a local landmark, was not erected until 1885. The church has now been redeveloped as flats, with a small chapel created at the east end, and the former churchyard is only partially accessible. The churchyard had some fine tombs and gravestones, including a red granite obelisk marking the family grave of George and Mary Baxter. By the west wall was a memorial in the form of a pinnacle to members of the Tetley family of tea fame, dated 1872, and to the right of the main entrance was the gravestone to the Hennell family. Part of the grounds are accessible during holidays and weekends only.


Parking is available on the street next to the church for a quick cache grab.

You are looking for an unusual cache but it’s in plain sight. It is not on the land belonging to the church building.

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.
