About us
It sits in South Leicestershire roughly between the much better watched Eyebrook and Stanford Reservoirs.
Anglers are still a feature but the yacht club no longer exists so is not a disturbance.
Several county rarities have been found over the years, including two county firsts: Great White Egret in 1988 and Pallid Harrier in 1993. Other notable birds recorded include Eider, Purple Heron, Manx Shearwater, Great Northern Diver and Red-necked Grebe.
It has public access. Park sensibly and view the water from the dam or from the obvious viewpoints along the road towards Gumley.
