OUSE ANGLING PRESERVATION SOCIETY

NORTH FROM BARCOMBE MILLS


Upstream of the river's tidal limit...

Fishing on the west bank of the main river from the northern boundary of Barcombe House to the fence of the field north of the mouth of the Bevern Stream.

Fishing on the main river above the main mill pool from the sluice gate as far as the fence just past the footbridge on the southern bank of Andrew's Cut, then the remainder of the south bank of the Cut to Andrew's weir and from the weir downstream on Andrew's Stream as far as Pike's bridge on the right hand (northern) bank.

Fishing on the main river in the field to the south of the reservoir. From the field boundary just south of the reservoir downstream to the confluence with Andrew's Cut then along the Northern bank of the Cut past the top of Andrew's Weir.

Fishing for Annual (Sea Trout and Coarse) and Winter Permit holders ONLY at Brown's Farm, Barcombe Mills - click here for details

A car parking sticker for the current season MUST be displayed on parked vehicles at all times. This is especially important at Brown's Farm, please ensure that a sticker is visible when parking here.

The Society has a car park at Barcombe Mills shown on the information pack supplied with your permit and accessible through a combination padlocked gate - combination shown on your permit. A current car parking sticker must be displayed on parked vehicles at all times. Parking is also available, except during the winter, in the public car park near Pike's Bridge.

Please note: Access to the sluice gates just above the main mill pool is required by the Environment Agency at all times. Permit and Day Ticket holders should NOT park in this area.


Downstream from the Anchor Inn...

Approximately a quarter of a mile of single bank fishing.

Fishing on the east bank ONLY of the first field downstream from the Anchor farm bridge to its boundary almost opposite the Old Oil Mills, including the Anchor weirpool. This area is also available for Coarse fishing on a Day Ticket available from the usual outlets.

Please note: Whilst it is tempting to use the sluice gates to cross the river here, the Environment Agency has requested that anglers keep off this potentially dangerous structure. To access the east bank please use ONLY the Anchor farm bridge to cross the river.

Car parking here is ONLY available in the Anchor Inn overflow car park. This is in the field on the left hand (northern) side of the road just before the Anchor Inn forecourt. DO NOT park on the Anchor Inn forecourt or in the car park opposite the pub. To get to the river cross the Anchor farm bridge just past the pub, then go through the stile into the field on your right.

Please ensure that your car parking sticker is displayed at ALL times.

Annual/Winter Permits and Day Tickets are not available from the pub.


The Bevern Stream...

Approximately a mile and a half of small stream fishing.

Fishing west on both banks from the main river north of the Barcombe House northern boundary, upstream to the bridge carrying the farm track, then upstream of the farm track on the south bank as far as the old railway bridge. Fishing is then on the northern bank upstream from the old railway bridge westwards to Clappers Bridge at Barcombe Cross, then on to the western boundary of the first field upstream of Clapper's Bridge.

Single strand electric fencing may be in place in the area between the old railway line and the main river at times when horses are in these fields. If this causes any problem, please let the Society know.

The Society has a car park at Barcombe Mills, shown on the information pack supplied with your permit and accessible through a combination padlocked gate - combination shown on your permit. Parking is not allowed on the farm track under ANY circumstances.
