Bough Beech Reserve is part of a reservoir in southwest Kent not far from Chartwell. The principal viewing area is the public road along a causeway crossing the northern end and along which many visitors park their cars. There are therefore no restrictions of time or any membership fee. For me, living in Biggin Hill, the reserve is about twenty to twenty five minutes drive and I often go there at odd times. The lake attracts many wildfowl, waders and gulls and the surrounding fields and woodland a wide range of other species. The Visitors' Centre, in an old Oast, is open between April and October. In the areas about it are a feeding station for small birds, school study areas and a viewing platform over the marsh area.
