A nature reserve in Netherfield is throwing open its doors for a series of guided walks over the spring and summer months.

People can learn more about the plant life and also wild inhabitants at Netherfield Lagoons by joining one of the walks, which are being run by site manager Pete Smith

The meeting point for them all is the same: the footbridge over the Ouse Dyke onto the reserve that is reached using the footpath from Teal Close.
