Walked to this one after finding "The Adventures of Jay & Kay" cache. I guess from the look of the old church that there isn't too much interest anymore or perhaps it's just that there aren't that many parishoners flocking to the church(es) anymore and it's tired look is a reflection of that.
Anyway, we found the cache so it's off to the next one.
