The Benches at Holton Pits Have Had Some TLC!

A little bit of love and attention has been given to the benches at Holton Pits, and they’re now looking rather smart!

We’ve treated and stained them, so please don’t use the benches for the next 24 hours while everything has a chance to dry properly.

Sitting down too soon won’t improve the view… but it might leave you with a rather interesting new shade of clothing! 😄

Please give the benches 24 hours to dry — thank you for helping us keep them looking their best.

🔥Fire Safety at Holton Pits 🚒

In light of the devastating and tragic fire at Dunwich Heath, we'd like to remind everyone how important it is to do everything we can to help protect our beautiful local wildlife and natural spaces.

Our thoughts are with everyone affected by this devastating fire, and our sincere thanks go to the fire crews and emergency services working tirelessly to bring it under control.

With the current dry conditions, even the smallest spark can have devastating consequences.
Please help keep Holton Pits safe by:
🚫 No BBQs or open fires anywhere on site.
🚭 Dispose of cigarette ends responsibly – never drop them on the ground, even if you think they're out.
🗑️ Take all litter home, especially glass bottles, which can pose a fire risk in hot weather.
🐕 Keep to designated paths where possible and be mindful of the surrounding vegetation.
📞 If you see smoke or fire, move to a safe location and call 999 immediately.
Every visitor can play a part in protecting this special place for wildlife and future generations. A moment of care can prevent a tragedy.
Thank you for helping to keep Holton Pits safe. 💚

☀️💧 A Breath of Fresh Air for Holton Pits 💧☀️
We're delighted to see the installation of a new solar-powered aeration system at Holton Pits, funded through a grant from the Environment Agency and the Angling Trust Fisheries Improvement Programme (FIP).
The system uses the power of the sun to keep water moving and increase oxygen levels, creating a healthier environment for fish and other aquatic wildlife. Improved water quality helps support fish welfare, particularly during warmer weather when oxygen levels can become depleted.
A fantastic example of sustainable technology delivering real benefits for our fisheries and local environment.
Many thanks to the Environment Agency and Angling Trust for supporting this valuable project.

The equipment floats on the surface of the lake, please be vigilant and report if you see anyone near it or trying to interfere with it.

Sadly, we have had reports from numerous members of the public about someone not only allowing, but encouraging their dogs to chase wildlife, both in the lake and wooded areas.

This is not what Holton Pits stands for; the site is there for the community and wildlife to coexist peacefully.

The Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981 and the Dangerous Dogs Act 1991 prohibit intentionally or recklessly disturbing wildlife, including chasing birds or animals.

New 2026 legislation strengthening penalties to include unlimited fines and potential seizure of dogs.

If we find someone is doing this, action will be taken and they will be asked to leave the site.

Please act responsibly and report all such behaviour.

Please note: the images used here are not from Holton Pits. The reports on this occasion were of 2 spaniels (1 brown & white and 1 black) and a yellow labrador with the owner instructing them to go after the wildlife.
