White Swan Lake

White Swan Lake is 24 acres in size and was originally formed as a gravel pit in the early 1970's, to help build the A239(M). It is stocked with top quality fish, including Carp (Mirror, Common and Crusian), Rudd and Roach.

Although it is mainly a specimen fishery, pleasure anglers can catch good quality Roach, Rudd, Perch and Bream from any of the swims. There are 90 swims on the lake.

White Swan Lake is considered to be one of the premier specimen fisheries in the whole of the UK.
