River Cam


Key Information
about the location
Byron's Pool, part of the River Cam in Cambridgeshire, carries the name of the famous poet Lord Byron, who used to swim at the weir pool. This delightful woodland site offers a lovely circular walk alongside the river, perfect for a leisurely stroll.
wildlife and conservation
The area is a haven for wildlife enthusiasts. You might spot kingfishers darting by or grey wagtails near the weir. The woodland is actively managed by removing non-native sycamore trees and encouraging native hazel through coppicing. Additionally, several small ponds are maintained to support amphibian populations, making it a vibrant spot for nature lovers.
fishing
Fishing at Byron's Pool is managed by CFPAS Ltd on behalf of Cambridge City Council. If you already hold a membership, you're welcome to fish the waters here. It's a Local Nature Reserve, so enjoying a peaceful day by the river is always an option for members.
