Brief description of fishery:
This fishery extends down to the deep ditch upstream of Bartlett’s Cliff. The lower end of the fishery is slow and deep with extensive reed beds, limiting access to a few swims. Shallower, faster water at the top of the fishery holds a good head of predominantly chub and dace. Roach, perch and pike are also present throughout. The odd brown trout can also show up.
Unfortunately, access to this fishery is currently very difficult. The road to the car park is pretty much impassable by car, and a combination of fly tipping and vegetation growth severely inhibits parking if you can reach it. The Club is seeking to solve these problems, but some issues are out of our hands.

Taking the B3073 past Haskins and Hobbycraft for ¼ mile then turn left into High Mead Lane and park here. Entry to the river is on foot and can be difficult. Follow the track down towards a small copse, then the rough track will lead to a footbridge which crosses the brook, the river is across the field.
