Colliers Moss Common North has been designated as a Local Nature Reserve. The north and south sections are separated by a railway line and connected by a single bridge over this railway. Paths are often very muddy / flooded. You should consider wellingtons if there has been a recent rainy spell or if snow has melted. When I placed the caches wellingtons were a necessity and boots not suitable. Since then, though I have been there on a number of occasions when boots were fine. Also, there have been many improvements to the site and its paths.

PLEASE NOTE: THIS IS A WETLAND AREA AND NOT ALL PONDS, WATER-FILLED DITCHES, ETC ARE PLAIN TO SEE BUT CAN BE HIDDEN BY REEDS / VEGETATION. CHILDREN MUST BE CLOSELY SUPERVISED AT ALL TIMES AND PLEASE KEEP TO THE PATHS EXCEPT WHEN CLOSE TO GZ AND THUS NEED TO LEAVE PATH TO SEARCH.
Many thanks to The Mersey Forest for letting me keep my caches here now they have taken over the land.
