The Belper Hills series is an 8'ish mile circular walk with 20 caches to find. There are no clues to collect and no specific starting point, even though they are numbered 1-20. Park where its most convenient and just get started. There are watering holes along the way. Plus the usual mud and boggy bits after rain, also two busy roads to cross. Plenty of hills and views on offer.
This cache is next to the northern arm of The Horseshoe Weir on The River Derwent.
The weir was installed in 1797 to provide sufficient hydraulic head for a breast-shot suspension wheel that powered the early cotton mills of Jedediah Strutt. It is listed Grade Two Star.
Wheelchair users might require some help in retrieving the cache.
