Parking
P1 Parking
* PLEASE NOTE P1 PARKING IS TEMPORARILY SUSPENDED DUE TO RE-SEEDING *
Turn off B6412 (sign posted to Eden Lacy) down Mill Gate Lane. After half a mile you will see a cattle grid on your right. Drive over this and straight down to the river. This is the top end of the fishing beat. Suitable for 4x4 and general vehicles through the summer months. Be aware of lambs in the spring.
P2 Parking
If you continue down Mill Gate Lane, you will come to a white gate on a bend, signposted to Carkeld Holm and Force Mill. Go through that white gate, down the track under the railway and you will see a sign (P2) on the right. Ideally, please park by the sign and walk down to the river. If you need to park down by the river, please park under the viaduct. Suitable for 4x4 and general vehicles through the summer months. Be aware of lambs in the spring.
P3 Parking
Continue down Mill Gate Lane, past the white gate, past the Lodge (1 bedroom cottage on the right), over the railway and cattle grid. You come into the park, you will see a walled garden on your right, turn right after the walled garden and continue down the track to the white (Scout) gate. Park there and walk down to the river. Suitable for 4x4 and general vehicles through the summer months. Be aware of lambs in the spring.
P4 Parking (not signed)
Take the P3 turning, past the walled garden. You will then see a track going diagonally left across the park (as opposed to straight on that leads to P3). Follow the track to the gate in the corner. Go through the gate, down the hill and from here you can drive (opening 2 gates on the way) to the bottom of the fishing beat. This is P4. Suitable for 4x4 vehicles only. Be aware of lambs in the spring.
