Cropston Reservoir is a 100 acre trout fishery. The dam is 690 m long and rises to a height of 16 m at its highest point, which gives a water depth of up to 12 m. The reservoir was completed in 1870.

Just a small diversion from the delightful but popular (ie busy) drive running along the south side of Bradgate Park.
