Información extra

Recently the National Trust who own Saltram Park have closed off access to the embankment that holds the high water roost at Blaxton Meadow (or Blaxton Marsh/, please DO NOT walk on this embankment as this has a major effect on wintering birds.

NB, Blaxton Meadow (or Marsh) is not to be confused with Blaxton Creek, which can be found on Lopwell Dam and Tavy Estuary (see separate entry).
