The fishery is located to the east of the village of Upper Clatford, approximately 2.5 miles from the A303. The fishery is accessed off Norman Court Lane via a gated entrance with a private car park for two vehicles.
River Anton
The source of the Anton rises north of Andover and flows south, through the villages of Upper Clatford and Goodworth Clatford before joining the Test below Chilbolton. A classic Hampshire chalk stream, the river flows through traditional water meadows and supports a rich ecosystem.
The Fishery

Fishing Hut
