Warleigh Weir

"Great spot for a dog walk or a walk with family! Parking is a bit challenging so I’d recommend parking on the main road and walking down. Parking on the road by the Weir would block emergency access. I’m a little cautious about the rail crossing and the emergency access. But that being said, it’s a beautifully maintain spot of land and it’s a real privilege that the public are allowed to go use it!"

"A surprising find on an evening walk from our narrow boat mooring. Easy to miss if you cruise along the canal, but definitely worth a visit. No entry fee to see the weir."

"Beautiful! You can reach it by walking/cycling along the canal or by car. If you want to relax better going early in the morning and week days if possible as very popular for groups in summer and the field close to it is not huge if you want to sit and have a picnic. You can also walk or swim there with caution obviously. Free of charge but at the entry of the field there is a box for coin donation so bringing a pound or 2 to help keep the place tidy and cared for would be nice. If you want to drink or eat there remember to take a bin bag with you and bring your rubbish "at home" as there are no bins in the area."

"Nice little place for swimming, paddle boarding and kayaking and a few good rope swings - in the summer there’s often a converted ambulance ice cream van that does really good rolled ice cream!"
