Ponds with easy access for disabled

Recommended Posts

Can anyone recommend a pond with easy access from car to bank side?

 

Father-in-Law has had a hip operation and is now able to walk short distances with slight declines / inclines, but many of his usual ponds are still inaccessible to him.

 

Thanks.

Newbiggin in north sheffield has good access for the less able angler. It's a short walk from the car park to the bank which is flat with sturdy platforms.

Further afield, some commercials like hallcroft you are able to park directly behind your peg.

Loads of places at Aston, you can get that near to the bankside, you could fish from sat in your car, obvious you wouldn't :hihi: but that's how close you can get.:D
