A disused lagoon, built for settling limestone slurry waste with open water, bare mud, reedbeds and scrub. Good for passage waders, ducks and gulls.
Middleton Moor Lagoons is an isolated pocket of marsh, pools and reedbeds in the Derbyshire Peak District. With no similar habitat nearby, it is a draw to passage waders, gulls and waterfowl. It is probably the only site in the Peak District where Rousserolle effarvatte regularly breed and one of very few sites locally for Phragmite des joncs also. In spring and early autumn high artic waders regularly stop off to feed before continuing on their migration.
Cygne chanteur turn up annually as they migrate to and from their wintering grounds in the UK. Petit Gravelot breed and Courlis cendré from the nearby moors often drop in to wash and roost, with relatively large flocks seen in early spring. Goéland leucophée is regular in late summer. The surrounding scrub is good for warblers, finches and chats. The site has a long bird list, with many rarities having been found over the years.
Travelling from Great Longstone towards Foolow leave the public road turning right onto an unmade roadway. In approximately 200m, where the roadway bears to the left at the edge of the lagoon workings, park near the gateway on the right, being careful to avoid obstruction to farm traffic. Press P in the map for directions to the parking spot.
As the workings are now disused, it is possible to walk along the tracks inside the fence line on the north-east side of the main lagoon. The walking route shown on the map is about 4 km.
