Emsworth Mill Pond Opening Schedule

 

The Environment Agency endeavours to maintain water levels in the Mill Pond high enough to cover the mudflats around its edge. On a regular basis the Agency opens the control structures to allow the water level to flush in and out, rising and falling with the tide, and thus avoiding the water in the Pond becoming brackish.

 

These scheduled events are subject to suitable weather and tidal conditions. In the event of unfavourable conditions the Pond may be opened or closed without prior warning.
