Stanford Pit

Water levels at Stanford Pit are governed by the underlying water table and fluctuate from year to year. The lake completely dried out during the summer of 2019 following 3 consecutive years of below average rainfall.  The lake's water levels were fully restored during the wet winter of 2020/21.  The club restocked the lake in 2021 with 1,300 tench and 2,700 crucians purchased, and rudd introduced from the clubs stock pond. Some carp have also reappeared.
