The Lower Piddle Valley Flood Fields are a series of flooded fields with freshwater and brackish water pools during early Spring, Autum and Winter and also following heavy rain. It's just one of those places anything can turn up. In Spring 2024 there were 22 different species of waders recorded, with various wildfowl and gulls.
Details
Toegang
The Lower Piddle Valley Flood Fields are located directly east of the town of Wareham. The town has a train station and also regular bus service (#40) from Poole / Swanage.
Park in one of the Wareham car parks or safely in the street. From the end of East Steet, walk along North Bestwalls Rd, which goes through a small copse and leads to Bestwalls Park. Then bear left and follow the track to a kissing gate. This then leads you into the Lower Piddle Valley Flood Fields. The footpath also forms part of the Two Rivers Walk and continues on to Swineham and the River Frome.
Allow an 30 minutes to walk along the edge of the fields, but depending on what is about a visit can last over an hour.
