Rodbridge Picnic Site

Whether you simply want to picnic or try the 3 mile Valley Walk to Sudbury, this is a delightful place to visit. Since they were flooded, the gravel pits near the River Stour have become an excellent place to observe wildlife.

The walk along the riverbanks, shaded by willow and poplar trees, is particularly pleasant. it's also popular with anglers.

From here you can walk along the Valley Trail, Melford Walk or even up to the Lavenham Walk - all the sites, including Rodbridge picnic site were declared a Local Nature Reserve in 2003.

Please be aware that there is a height barrier at the entrance to this site.

This site is a Local Nature Reserve and further information can be found using the link to Natural England at the top of this page.
