Mere Farm itself was on the inside of the bend on Mere Farm Road. The further you are down the pay scale, the more 'essential' you are when the s--- hits the fan...

From the Swan hotel it follows the line of the old Flat Lanes, then Noctorum Lane then Budworth Rd. then Bidston Rd. to the Flaybrick reservoir. Here's a map.
