New Pool is a freshwater body located in Staffordshire, England. With an area of approximately 10 hectares, it is considered a small lake or large pond. The water body is situated within a picturesque landscape, surrounded by lush greenery and rolling hills.

New Pool is known for its diverse ecosystem, providing a habitat for various flora and fauna. The lake is home to several species of fish, including pike, perch, roach, and bream, making it a popular spot for anglers. The tranquil waters also attract a variety of water birds, such as ducks, swans, and herons, which can be observed gracefully gliding across the surface.

The lake is surrounded by a mix of reed beds, wet grassland, and shrubs, creating a freshwater marsh ecosystem. This marshland serves as a vital breeding ground for many amphibians, including frogs and newts. The area is also rich in aquatic vegetation, with lily pads and water lilies adorning the surface during the summer months.

New Pool is a popular recreational spot for locals and visitors alike. It offers opportunities for boating, fishing, and birdwatching. The peaceful atmosphere and scenic beauty make it an ideal destination for nature lovers seeking a tranquil retreat.

To ensure the preservation of this valuable ecosystem, the local authorities have implemented measures to protect the water quality and maintain the surrounding habitats. Visitors are encouraged to respect the natural environment and follow guidelines to minimize their impact on the delicate ecosystem of New Pool.

A gated bridleway west of Howlet Hall farm The bridleway is a good track for much of its length, with a gate or two to slow the enthusiastic cyclist down. And some muddy sections to ensure a good splattering.

Bridleway in a hayfield Recently-mown hay baled up ready for winter cattle feed. The bridleway follows the field margin, and is easily rideable, albeit a little soft in places.

Bridleway to No Man's Green Following this was a mistake. The first bit, across this field, was OK, but it then drops into a Cains Gorse copse, and become distinctly damp underfoot. Not really cyclable, and frankly, a bit of a pain to push a bike along. And full of nettles, which is always fun in shorts.
