Geocache Description:

A multi cache starting from the mission church of St James in Leedstown. The route to the final is fairly level but depending on your chosen route will be along stretches of either unmade road or over fields with stiles and the chance of encountering farm animals. You are looking for a 14cm bottle blank. Please bring your own pen.   


The mission church of St. James, opened in August, 1882, by Dr. Benson, sometime Bishop of Truro, and late Archbishop of Canterbury, is a building of stone in the Early English style, and consists of chancel, nave, north porch and a bell turret containing one bell: the church was built by subscription at a cost of £500, the font being given by the builder, Mr. William Carah, of Praze, and has sittings for 100 persons.

— Kelly's Directory of Cornwall (1902)

A= The number of windows in the wall to the left of the door

B= The number of outside lights above the door

C= The number of crosses on the top of the roof and porch

The cache can be found at:
