A visit to peaceful, secluded Abbey Lakes can help soothe away
the stresses and strains of modern life.
A wide variety of ducks, geese, swans, and other wetland birds
congregate on the lake, making it the ideal place to introduce your
children to the joy of feeding the ducks.
The lake was formerly a supply lake for a local abbey and the
fascinating history of this site has recently been the subject of
the Abbey Lakes Heritage Project. More information on this is
available from the Countryside Ranger service.
Abbey Lakes, on the border of Up Holland and Orrell, is now a
popular local coarse angling facility. It's leased to a local club
