Welcome to The Laches

The Laches Staffordshire is a river that flows through the county of Staffordshire in England. It is a tributary of the River Trent and is approximately 50 miles long. The river rises in the hills near the village of Codsall and flows through the towns of Wolverhampton, Walsall, and Cannock before joining the River Trent near Alrewas.

The Laches Staffordshire has a rich history and has played an important role in the development of the region. In the past, the river was used for transportation of goods and materials, and many mills and factories were built along its banks. Today, the river is a popular destination for fishing, boating, and other recreational activities. The Laches Valley is also home to a variety of wildlife, including otters, kingfishers, and herons.

Despite its importance, the Laches Staffordshire has faced many challenges over the years. Pollution from industry and agriculture has had a significant impact on the river's ecosystem, and efforts have been made to improve water quality and restore habitats. In recent years, there has been a renewed focus on the importance of the river and its role in the local community, and many organizations are working to protect and preserve the Laches Staffordshire for future generations.

Local Dog Walks

Oily Gough Local Nature Reserve
Oily Goughs Is A Site That We Have Done Lots Of Work On Recently. After A Series Of Amphibian Surveys (To Make Sure There Were No Protected Species On Site), We Have Reprofiled The Pond At The Southern End Of The Site. It Had Been Very Overgrown With Reeds, And Was Almost Completely Dried Up This Year. After Relocating Some Fish And Other Animals, We Scraped A New Profile For The Pond, Which Should Refill Over The Winter And Look Fabulous By Summer 2012! There Are Two Other Pools Ate Oily Goughs (Which Was Named After A Man Named Gough Who Used To Sell Scrap Oil On The Site Many Years Ago!).

There Is No Parking For This Park, So You Have To Park On The Opposite Side Of The Road Next To The School. There Is A Wooden Nature Reserve Sign That Is Visible From The Kerb Side So You Will Not Miss It. I Would Recommend Dogs On Leads From The Car To The Big Field Which They Are Free To Run Wild.
