About this Event
Built in 1838, the Leg o' Mutton Reservoir supplied water until its decommission in 1960. Today, measuring just 800 x 100m (8.2ha), this linear site offers shelter and haven to a wealth of birds and other wildlife.
Spring is a lovely time to explore the reservoir, walking under the trees and listening for bird song and the croaking of Marsh frogs.
Please dress appropriately for the weather and wear sturdy footwear.
