Geocache Description:

Cache is in the administerative centre of Sheffield around the houses of the Dams, named after the sources of much of Sheffields drinking water. The second of 10 Sheffield City Centre caches I have placed - but now in it's third home and I've just replaced a nano with a magnetic key box in this location.
The GPS is all over the place so I've added a waypoint from where the GPS gives a reasonably accurate location for the cache.

This Cache is approximatley 6 minutes walk from the Bus and Rail stations - or three minutes from "Hubbub" - straight up Charles Street - and close to the award winning Peace Gardens - City Centre landscaping and water feature, and the Millenium Gardens and Gallery, and Sheffield Town Hall, Sheffields only Grade 1 listed building.

This cache has part of the code needed to get to the Sheffield City Centre Bonus Cache. (SCC)

SCC1,2,4-9 all have a different letter and number 1-8, A-H so you only need 7 out of the 8 of these caches to be able to work out the final clue (just in case one of these caches is temporarily out of action.)

SCC3 - Kitkat-car-park is an essential and is Y in the calculation.

The full calculation is to work out the final three coordinates of the Northings and Westings for the bonus cache. - which will be detailed once the final cache is published.

For now you need to record
