Situated in Goytside Meadows nature reserve which can be accessed from the canal tow path through a gate which isn't wheel chair or pushchair friendly.
The mosaic of wet and dry habitats at Goytside Meadows was influenced over 200 years ago when the canal was constructed above the fields in 1796. Even in the nineteenth century the area was described as “Flowery Meadows” with the three fields that today make up the reserve known by the name “Nice Eyes”, “Little Eyes and Higher Meadow”, and "Higher Flowery Croft”. "Eyes2" possibly refer of the wet areas within the lower fields.
In the south east corner of the Reserve, a stone-lined sough, which drains a former quarry and coal mine, provides water supply for grazing animals. Nearby, the weir in the river was built at the end of the nineteenth century to provide water for a leat or trench feeding a turbine that pumped drinking water for New Mills to a reservoir.
The main feature of the Reserve is its flower-rich grassland – the most threatened habitat both nationally and locally with over 90% lost in Derbyshire since the early 1980s.
The abundance of flowering plants, wetland habitats, mature trees and areas of scrub with nectar-rich bramble also creates an ideal habitat for insects. Several rare species have been identified at Goytside.
Located near to the cache site there is a stone sun dial.
Views from the cache site include the viaduct over the river goyt and Kinder in the background.
