Moss Eccles Tarn
Near Sawrey, Cumbria LA22 - England, UK
|
| Moss Eccles Tarn is just a short walk from Near Sawrey. It was here that Beatrix Potter spent many an hour fishing - from a rowing boat that can now be seen at the Windermere Steamboat Museum, having been recovered in 1976. It is a 5 acre man made tarn owned by the National Trust and recognised as a Site of Special Scientific Interest. The tarn is stocked annually with a large number of good sized brown trout, and those with a permit are able to fly fish here. |
