Beschrijving
Along the lane close to the carpark Ringmus are quite common, one of the few places in Cheshire. Unusual waterfowl may be found on any of the large lakes, however a telescope is recommended as views can be quite distant. Tafeleend, Brilduiker, Grote Zaagbek are likely in winter, Nijlgans can be quite frequent, and if lucky, unusual species such as Kolgans or Geoorde Fuut can occasionally show up.
The woods, forest and field hedgerow adjacent to the lakes are a good place to find the common tits and finches. All 3 wood peckers are reported, Grote Bonte Specht quite frequent, Groene Specht occasional, Kleine Bonte Specht rarely. Large flocks of Vink can occur, as well as Putter, Groenling and an occasional Keep.

Toegang
Acre Nook Sand Quarry and Lapwing Hall Pool are located west of Macclesfield. Turn off Holmes Chapel Road onto Lapwing Lane and follow it until reaching a small amount of car parking under trees, the road is a dead end so you cannot go too far. Press a P on the map for directions. From here you can make a there-and-back walk along Acre Nook Silt Lagoon or a loop around Lapwing Hall Pool. A small amount of roadside parking is available on Congleton Road, but access to the footpaths is only via the eastern corner.
