2G3S Nature Walk at Dernford Reservoir, Stapleford/Sawston
26th June 2021 @ 2:00 pm - 3:00 pm BST
Our first 2021 local nature walk will be around Dernford Reservoir on Saturday 26th June between 2-3 pm. The reservoir area was opened for public access following amelioration of the former gravel quarry. There is a meadow flora around the reservoir and some interesting bird life including Goosander, Great-crested Grebe, Tufted Duck and Common Terns on the small island.
Meet at the car park next to the reservoir off Cambridge Road just south of the village (Map reference TL471511). As you come out of Stapleford on the Cambridge Road you will see the Rose pub restaurant on the left. Continue over the road bridge and take the first right up the former quarry service road. Continue for 250m and the small car park is on the right.
Sturdy footwear is advised and sun protection/water as appropriate. Note these walks are intended to raise awareness of our local wildlife sites and open to all ages, though you attend at your own risk.
