The River Great Ouse, Lavendon Mill

This Fishery is situated above and below the now defunct Lavendon Mill which is now used as a Farmhouse on the left hand side of the river between Olney and Turvey.

The Upstream section is from the brook Inlet through the next four fields to the spinney fence upstream of the weir. This section is very wide, deep and slow flowing during the summer, with increased flow after heavy rainfall in the winter months.

The Downstream section runs from the downstream boundary of the orchard and extends 3 fields via 2 footbridges to the dry ditch. This stretch is not for the faint hearted as the banks are very steep thanks to drainage engineers! Waders are recommended to be able to fish some swims.

The Downstream section below the weir that replaced the original mill is shallower with an average depth of 4', is weedy and has a good flow most of the year and has produced some excellent specimens in recent years.

Double Figure Barbel (15lb+ in 2008), Carp and Pike have been caught from the downstream section which also produces bags of quality Roach when conditions are right.

 The slower upstream section holds large Perch, Roach, Bream to 7lb+, Carp 24lb+ and Tench of 6lb+. Also Chub of 6lb+ make the odd appearance. There have also been reports of Barbel above the weir.

Members may not fish from the Lawn above the weir or the Lawn and Orchard below the weir (approx 1/4 of a mile)

No Day Tickets are available but a Guest Ticket can be obtained from the Fisheries Manager.

Night Fishing is permitted click here for more details

Getting There

The fishery is alongside the B565 Olney to Cold Brayfield road. If approaching from Olney, look for the red brick and rail bridge across the brook followed by the ramped access to the parking area on the right. Access to the field is via the adjacent wicket gate, look for the Club's sign and make sure the gate is secure to prevent sheep escaping!.

If fishing the downstream section park on the grass opposite the Dutch Barn at the entrance to the farm. Please take care not to wander in to the garden of the converted barns! Please contact the fisheries management team if there is any confusion regarding parking or access. The Aerial view above should help you locate parking and access routes to the river.
