IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO ADD TO THIS SERIES, PLEASE CONTACT THE SERIES OWNER (SEE BELOW)
We are often told (correctly, if somewhat ideologically), that geocaches should take us to somewhere "interesting", and not simply be placed just for the sake of it. The aim of this series is to try and adhere to this ideal by basing caches around details given on an Interpretation Board about the area in which it is situated. By definition, it is hoped that this information will be "interesting", and will help the cacher discover things about the area that would often not be revealed by a traditional cache.
These coordinates won't bring you to an information panel as such, but rather a town map in one of the main car parks at the bottom of town. But the map contains illustrations of a number of notable buildings in the town. They may not all be "historic", but who is to say which of today's buildings won't be tomorrow's history?
Use the information on this map to answer these questions and so give you the coordinates of the cache, which is very close by.
A is the Scala Cinema
B is the War Memorial divided by the Fire Station minus Victoria Park
C is the Sports Park
X is the Stanton Truck divided by Derby College
Y is Erewash Museum minus Victoria Park
Z is the Library minus the Leisure Centre
The cache can be found at N 52 58.ABC W 001 18.XYZ
