We'd be happy to respond to email if another hint is
required.
Some local roads are very busy (with fast traffic), especially at
rush hour, so please be very careful if you have to cross any!
This is one of a series of "Dam Fine" caches. Each is loosely,
or sometimes very tenuously, linked to a dam theme. Other caches in
the series include:
We had to make a cache here. This place has all the hallmarks of
the perfect park. A nice, flat, short walk (or scooter when the wee
ST's were smaller) round the water followed by coffee and a great
bun in a cafe with a view. There's even a castle!
What about the dam? Well it's more of a man-made loch, but it
does have some dam-like structures at one end of it - presumably to
stop it from overflowing.
We remember driving past here, not that many years ago, and seeing
the place being excavated. Apparently, it formally opened in 1996.
The park is particularly impressive with Mains Castle overlooking
it in the background.
