Pleasley Pit CP is a disused pit that has since been turned into a thriving nature reserve. It is situated in North East Derbyshire just off the A617.
The area consists of wide gravel paths, easily accessible for wheelchair & mobility scooters. It consists of scrubland, a large pond at the old pit top 3 small ponds which is fantastic for dragon & damselflies in the warmer months & a long thin pond to the south.
There are benches around the park and a cafe in the old pit complex that is open 10am-2pm on weekdays, serving hot drinks & food. It is run by volunteers from the local villages. Pleasley Pit Country Park is best visited in the cooler months during the Autumn Migration where Pato-trombeteiro, , Abibe-comum, Marrequinha-comum, Frisada & Corvo-marinho-de-faces-brancas can be seen on the large pond. With chances of local rarities like Combatente & Tarambola-dourada
There is a bird hide on the west bank, the key can be obtained from the Nature Group for a charge of £7.00 membership & £3.00 key deposit. There is a purpose built Andorinha-das-barreiras nesting bank which is well managed & attracts a large amount of birds in the summer to breed. Near to the entrance of the cafe a bird feeding station has been set up which attracts Dom-fafe, Verdilhão-comum & Escrevedeira-dos-caniços among other common species. Parking has recently been changed to a paid car park, £2.50 for the entire day, or if you frequent, a season pass can be purchased for £20 for the year. It is a Pay-By-Phone system and is ANPR monitored.
There are a number of small, wooded areas dotted around the park & 2 large wildflower meadows. Aside from birds, this park is excellent for butterflies & roe deer, the latter of which can be very tame, being occasionally seen browsing around the area of the pond, even during peak times.
