Comments:

There is off road parking at approximately 53°43.345'N, 2°32.783'W. Most of the route is flat but there is a slope with a slightly narrow muddy path. The cache is a little high so chair users may require assistance, as usual the final decision is yours. Hope this helps.

Cheers

Schnuz.

Comments:

Safe roadside parking available within 500ft.

The route to the cache involves a steep descent down onto the canal tow path which although stone steps they are sloped and slippery when wet.

The tow path itself was muddy in places and very slippery.

There is also a narrow gateway to pass through - not sure what they're called - but they're there to stop motorcyclists riding down there.
