Chippenham Fen
Low-lying wetland reserve of reedbeds, alder carr and open pools offering strong reflections, intimate wildlife (warblers, bitterns, dragonflies) and seasonal wildflowers. Best at dawn/dusk for golden light and bird activity; spring–summer for insects and breeding birds, autumn for migrating waterfowl. Small car park/layby on Snailwell Rd; paths and a boardwalk give good access but expect muddy sections—bring waterproofs. No entry fee; respect quiet rules to avoid disturbing nesting birds.
