Kingstanding Pools

The pools are approx 1 mile from the New Inn on the B5234 and ¼ mile from A515. The entrance gate is marked ‘private’ and is locked (key req.). We own the pools and are always improving both fish stocks and the Pegging. You will note that each pool is individually stocked with its own species (please do not transfer fish).
