Description: The Old Mere The Mere was created in the early 1940's due to peat extraction which at the time was used to heat the local houses in the village of Rockland St Peter. The Mere was then left to flood and over the years a wet woodland habitat developed. In 2001 James Harrold bought the Mere and surrounding woodland and after a lot of hard work, time and effort Rocklands Mere Fishery was born.

Rules: ? All anglers to purchase a ticket and gain padlock code before fishing. Lodge opens at 8.00am. Barbless hooks only. No keepnets/sacks. No night fishing. Unhooking mats compulsory. As this is not a Carp fishery, we feel that we dont have to impose the rules associated with Carp fishing/tactics and trust the anglers to use... COMMON SENSE..!!

Facilities: We do have toilet facilities on site as well as a tackle shop and angler's lodge with wood burner, sofas etc. The toilet has provision for physically disabled anglers and, by special request, disabled visitors are able to park nearer the lake.
