Speed limits matter!
The Fishermen’s Rod Room is on the north end of the house, beside the bicycle shed. You’ll find the fishing book and boat keys, as well as the loo. Please be careful to return the boat keys.
You’ll win favour with Charlie if you are as careful as he is about keeping the fishing huts and loo in clean and tidy condition. There’s a bin for rubbish.
The Good Sportsman fishes steadily down the beat – no ‘herons’ please!
