A former clay pit turned nature reserve featuring reedbeds, open lakes, willow carr and bird hides—ideal for birdlife, reflections and intimate wetland landscapes. Best at golden hours and during migration/winter wildfowl peaks. Visitor centre and free parking on Liverpool Rd; mostly level paths and hides accessible by short walks. No formal entry fee; expect uneven boardwalks in places and fewer crowds on weekday mornings.
