Killingworth Lake
-
Description
"Killingworth Lake and the surrounding woodland was created in the 1960s during the reclamation of derelict colliery land. The lake is designated as a Site of Local Conservation Interest (SLCI) and supports a wide variety of wildlife. The floating reed-bed was installed in 2005 to improve habitat diversity. The lake supports a large population of mute swans; a pair is currently nesting on the reed-bed, along with a Coot [[1838567]] and a Great Crested Grebe." Photo by Andrew Curtis, 2010. -
