Welcome to Bourne Brook

Bourne Brook is a small river that flows through the county of Staffordshire in England. It is a tributary of the River Trent and is approximately 15 miles long. The river rises in the village of Blythe Bridge and flows through the towns of Cheadle and Uttoxeter before joining the River Trent near the village of King's Bromley.

The Bourne Brook is an important habitat for a variety of wildlife, including otters, kingfishers, and brown trout. The river is also home to a number of rare and endangered species, such as the white-clawed crayfish and the water vole. The river is protected under the UK's Wildlife and Countryside Act, which aims to conserve and protect the country's natural habitats and wildlife.

The Bourne Brook is also a popular destination for anglers, who come to fish for brown trout and grayling. The river is known for its clear waters and challenging fishing conditions, which make it a favorite among experienced anglers. The river is also a popular spot for walkers and hikers, who can enjoy the beautiful scenery and wildlife along the riverbank. Overall, the Bourne Brook is a valuable natural resource and an important part of the Staffordshire landscape.
