Fishery Information
Eridge Park, located in the beautiful countryside of Sussex, is an excellent spot for a wide range of activities.
The Chalybeate spring’s trout fishery calls this location home. The origin of the Tunbridge Wells spa traces back to the trout lake. It spans two acres and it is situated in the middle of the Park. The lake is stocked with a healthy population of high-quality Rainbow and Brown trout, including some of the original wild fish that are still able to reproduce in the adjoining stream.
The Fishery is open all year. However, access is restricted for anglers with special needs. In addition to specimen carp, the lake is stocked with tench, bream, and plenty of other types of fish.
The larger Eridge Park Lake is a 14-acre carp fishing lake supplied with water by the nearby natural springs. This results in remarkable water quality and excellent oxygen levels throughout the lake.
