Geocache Description:

This is the tenth and final small micro cache -(Sarah this means they are one and the same, not the tenth and then the final) you will need to bring a pen to sign the log! It might be a good idea to bring your wellies too - it is a pretty boggy area but lovely for a walk. The series should take a couple of hours. Happy Caching!

Colliers Moss Common is part of Bold Moss Park. This common was created on the spoil and waste from the Bold Colliery and Power Station. A diverse landscape with water features (including lagoons, streams, wetland areas and a fishery), focal points, artworks, seating areas and an amphitheater all serve to make the whole site a beautiful and peaceful place to explore as well as an important habitat for wildlife. The widespread network of paths ensures good access for walkers, cyclists and horseriders. The remnants of mossland around the fringes of the site have been restored and areas of sphagnum moss are expanding. The site supports a range of notable species including water vole, common lizard and 16 species of dragonfly including Blacktailed Skimmer and Emperor.

There is quite a lot of water around so please be careful especially with young children.

If you manage to finish all 10, please contact us and we will send you the link to add a special badge to your profile!

Well done to the Amazing Gibbos on their FTF
