Brock Bottom Picnic Site and Nature Trails
Brock Mill Lane, Claughton, Preston, PR3 0PP · Preston
A hidden gem tucked away amongst the trees on the very western edge of the Forest of Bowland, with picnic areas beside the shallow River Brock — popular with families for paddling in warmer weather. Relaxing waterside and woodland trails lead past the ruins of an old cotton spinning mill built around 1790. A lovely low-key spot for a picnic and an explore.
