Brandon Marsh, Nature reserve and scientific interest site in Warwickshire, England
Brandon Marsh contains 92 hectares of pools, reedbeds, grassland, and woodland areas, providing diverse habitats for numerous bird species and local wildlife.
The land transformed from farmland to pools in the 1940s due to mining subsidence, leading to its designation as a protected site in 1973.
The reserve functions as the headquarters for Warwickshire Wildlife Trust, offering educational programs and hosting regular wildlife observation activities.
Visitors can access nine observation hides through two surfaced trails, the Kingfisher and Woodpecker paths, which accommodate wheelchairs and mobility scooters.
The site has documented 237 different bird species, 500 plant varieties, and 570 fungi types within its boundaries since its establishment.
