Cache Info
From Nine, pass the turning for the Dam, and head towards the car park. Of all the circuit I had most trouble here pin pointing an accurate reading! The cache is not poolside. Please replace as found :-) From here it's a short walk to the car park.
The Science Bit...
Knypersley Pool was designed by Thomas Telford and built by James Potter.
I have laid some caches along footpaths we normally walk, so others can enjoy them too. I've tried to use a range of sized caches and containers, and to keep the hide and terrain varied.
This was laid as a circular route, trying to incorporate some of the old caches that were archived here... Numbers 1-10 are in a circle round the main 2 pools, the diversion caches are on surrounding footpaths that can be done as extra or on another visit.
Please take some time to follow the Country Code, and respect the land you are crossing. Please be aware of muggles, livestock, dogs and children. It gets quite busy on a sunny day!

Please, please make sure you pick up after your dog, and make sure it is on a lead when necessary. Please keep it under control, as there are a lot of children and families round here. Most bins take litter and dog waste.
I hope you enjoy our caches. Please let me know if you have any suggestions or concerns. We welcome lots of photos but please avoid spoilers! Good luck!
