The main water is approximately 1 acre and upto 18 feet deep with most pegs having over 10 feet. There are 24 permanent pegs and a stock of most coarse species.

Please take extra care when visiting this venue as the banks are steep and the pathways can become very muddy in adverse weather conditions.

The Society also has a small pond at this venue which is shallow, much easier to fish and can provide great sport in winter when most other venues fail to produce.
