About this Event

Discover the history of College Lake, a site that has evolved from a medieval settlement to a farm, then a quarry, and now serves as a nature reserve, which is also designated as a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) due to its intriguing geology.

Bernard, one of our volunteer guides, will lead you on a 2-hour walk around the reserve to discover the hidden history of the site. Please note that the focus of these walks may vary, along with the group's interests.

Please wear suitable clothing and footwear. The route is only partially suitable for trampers due to steep slopes so you will need to be able to walk independently across this terrain. If you are planning on using one, please contact [email protected] in advance.

Please be aware:

  • Please arrive on time at the Visitor Centre where we will start our walk. The session lasts 2hrs and involves gentle walking around the site with stopping points along the way.
  • This activity takes place outdoors and we recommend appropriate clothing for all weathers.

Please read:

  • If you or a member of your household are feeling unwell on the day of the event, please do not attend.
  • Booking can either be done via website or if on the day – in person (providing there is space)
  • Photography consent - BBOWT sometimes take photos/videos for marketing purposes used in the public domain. Please contact us if you do not consent
