Habitat conservation
The area surrounding the reservoir is planted with native species and has become a haven for dragonflies. The reservoir landscape cannot be accessed, so the site remains a protected habitat for wildlife, but can be viewed from the Bird Hide.
The Bird Hide is a peaceful spot to while away some time. Over the last four years, 90 species of bird have been identified here, including wigeons, mallards, swans, pochard, moorhen, tufted duck, teal, coot, little grebe, snipe, cormorant, heron and greylag goose.
