Description
Bromeswell Lakes was originally a trout farm comprising several earth ponds, with the pools later extended and converted into a coarse fishery with a number of small pools and stock ponds.
LOCATION
The site is situated in the village of Bromeswell, next to the village hall with direct access onto the A1152 (Orford Road). Woodbridge is less than 2 miles distant. There are a number of leisure facilities in the immediate vicinity including Woodbridge Golf Club, The Unruly Pig Restaurant and Sutton Hoo Holidays Campsite.
DESCRIPTION
The site is accessed off School Lane, via a gated track, leading to a central car parking area. There is a brook which runs from the southern to northern boundary before flowing west to the River Deben. The largest pool situated at the western end of the site extends to approximately 1.5 acres with a match or canal style lake extending to approximately 0.6 acres and a series of smaller ponds under 0.25 acres. The total water area totals approximately 3 acres.
The remaining land is laid to grass with a mature tree lined boundary and partial post and wire fencing. There is a single storage container in the centre of the site. Prospective purchasers should note the fishery has not been operational since 2024, with investment required in respect of maintenance and improvements.
FISH STOCK
The lakes have been stocked historically, although prospective purchasers should note that at least partial restocking is likely to be required.
SERVICES
The site does not currently benefit from any mains services. There are mains electricity cables and pylons running over the land with a control box.
