G:UK cache rating

This is an easy micro cache once you are in the general area. Parking is available on street meters or council car parks. Why not try Sundays when parking is free and the area is quieter?

The cache location is representative of Derbys industrial heritage. This area is the start of the Derwent Valley Mills World Heritage Site

The black container is the size of a matchbox, so only has a log sheet. Please bring your own pen. There is no room for swops.

Nearby is a statue that is relevant to another Derby Cache. (A Bonnie Bridge (GCP0R2)).

From the grassy area near the statue you will be able to see the Cathedral. There is a platform attached to the "arched" area on the facing tower. This is where a pair of Peregrine Falcons regularly nest. See this web cam link. Peregrine Watch
