Stoke Lock and Woods

Highlight • Natural

Enjoy the peace and tranquility of the beautiful, rural location that is Stoke Lock and Woods on the River Trent near Nottingham. The mature woodland around Stoke Lock was planted just after the lock was built in 1927, creating an excellent site for walkers and nature lovers. There are also some fascinating conservation projects taking place in the area. For instance the Netherfield Lagoons Local Nature Reserve. You'll discover more from the interpretation panel and listening posts on site.

Netherfield Lagoons Nature Reserve

Highlight • Viewpoint

A Local Nature Reserve in Nottinghamshire

The Netherfield Lagoons, Local Nature Reserve is situated on the Trent Valley Flood Plain in Nottinghamshire and has been partly used as a dump for coal slurry but with two remaining gravel ponds. The two slurry pits are separated by a raised causeway, which is elevated some 50 feet (15 m) above the pits, giving a commanding view of the area. The largest tank is virtually full but retains some water, with muddy edges attractive to waders and roosting gulls and terns. The smaller tank is mainly deep water, attracting good numbers of wildfowl, with smaller birds, especially warblers, feeding and breeding around the tank edges. The site consists roughly of three compartments, the Slurry Lagoon, the Deep Pit and the two Gravel Pits.
