Beskrivning
Orgreave Lakes are a remnant of the coal industry. Its mixture of river, lakes, open ground and woodland of various ages. The lakes are home to wildfowl throughout the year, including Smådopping, storskrake, knipa, brunand, vigg and bläsand. Typical waders at the lake edges include tofsvipa, drillsnäppa, större strandpipare and strandskata. Many other species can turn up during migration like brushane, sandlöpare, svarthalsad dopping and svarttärna. Along the River Rother, look out for kungsfiskare and gråhäger. Surrounding Orgreave Lakes is extensive rough grassland where a variety of small birds may be found including sånglärka, ängspiplärka and hämpling. Hedgerows and areas of scrub and young woodland also support a range of smaller birds, including domherre, taltrast, and rödvingetrast and björktrast in the winter months.

Tillgänglighet
Access is possible from a number of directions, including from near the sports ground on Washfield Lane in Treeton. At the bottom of this road is the railway line that divides the area in two. To reach Orgreave Lakes, cross the footbridge and continue to another bridge across the River Rother. The lakes are then ahead and to your left and a complete circuit of these is possible (about 2,5 km).
