Horton Grange is great proof of the idea that - left to her own devices - Mother Nature is the best landscape artist. “HG” hasn’t been around long - just a few years ago it was just another hole left behind after opencast mining finished on the Blagdon Estate. 


But with a little bit of time, some TLC - and a little bit of help from the mining company, RM Banks - Horton Grange has gone from being a muddy hole in a field to a verdant, tree-lined, wildflower-girt jewel of a water, and it is brimful of fantastic fish, of course! 


Most members of the club admit to having a favourite club water, and Horton Grange is the favourite of many: you can put a little bit of effort in and catch roach, rudd, tench, perch and bream all day; or kick back, relax and take in the wildlife - you’re sharing the water with swans, geese, ducks, terns, coots... but they seem to enjoy the company! 


It’s really not difficult to see why HG is so popular, but you’ll always be able to find a place on the bank. The only thing that would make Horton Grange better would be having it in your back garden!
