Help us describe this site
Brogborough Lake is on our list of county birding sites, but nobody has written it up yet. These guides come from members who know the places, so if you bird here we’d be glad of a few lines: what the habitat is like, where to stand, and what turns up at what time of year.

Access
For viewing, it really depends on where the duck flocks are on the lake but the place most view from is the Sheeptick End viewpoint on the South West side as you can see most of the lake from there. You have to find the gap in the hedge and view from the inner track round the lake. Park near the blue spot on the telegraph post and go through the hedge. The fisherman have been blocking all the gaps up over the last few years but there are public footpaths which stop at the lake edge which we should all be able to use despite what they try and tell you! The birds are often distant and a scope is essential.
