FORD END – TEMPORARY CLOSURE

MAY 4th 2025

As a safety precaution we have had to temporarily close our Ford End water. Fish (silvers) have been spotted with a fungus growing around their head and back. We have met with an EA expert who has given us guidance on what actions we must take to resolve the problem. This is basically to improve the water quality and do regular testing for disolved oxygen, ammonia and PH levels.

As this fungus only affects salmonids, we are assured that our crucian carp which were introduced earlier this year are not affected.

Naturally we will advise as soon as the water can be reopened.
