Ogston Reservoir is an important site for birds (250 species recorded), mammals (Harvest Mouse) and a few rare plants.
Ogston Reservoir lies in the beautiful Amber Valley in Derbyshire, 4½ miles east of Matlock. It is owned and managed by Severn Trent Water and is a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI). The reservoir and surrounding area, with habitats including farmland and woodland, is one of Derbyshire’s premier bird watching sites and is home to Ogston Bird Club. It is an important site for spring and autumn passage migrants and is one of the country’s top inland sites for watching and recording gull roosts during the winter months.
Ogston Bird Club members have exclusive access to three well placed observational hides overlooking the reservoir, mud flats and scrapes. There is also a public hide overlooking the reservoir accessible from the West Bank Public Car Park. A monthly Guided Bird Walk led by volunteer members is held on the first Saturday of every month. Starting at 9.30, the walk is free to members and non-members. The Ogston Bird Club also runs a full programme of trips further afield throughout the year. See for more info the website of the Ogston Bird Club (see the link below).
