Batford Springs

Batford Springs is a 3.5-hectare (8.6-acre) Local Nature Reserve in Harpenden in Hertfordshire.

It is owned and managed by Harpenden Town Council, and most work on the site is undertaken by the Batford Springs Volunteers.

[1][2][3] The main feature of the reserve is a number of small springs which are the source of chalk streams and ponds.

The River Lea runs through the site, and there is grassland and a small wood.

The next fish nursery is the River Lea adjacent to the North Lake at Stanborough Park.
