Stockbridge Nature Reserve was the first area acquired by the group. This is a wetland site in the valley bottom adjacent to the river Aire and has a scrape and small shallow lake. Good views are obtainable from our large hide over-looking the site. Warblers breed in the vicinity, Kingfishers use the site daily and Water Rail are regular winter visitors. Keys to the hide are provided for all members and a daily log is kept on-site.

Conservation
Work is carried out on Thursday and Sunday mornings - Contact Shaun Radcliffe 01274 770960 for more details
