Bugley Pools Fishery
Directly adjoining Lot 1 but benefitting from its own access, Bugley Pools Fishery is an established and well-regarded coarse fishery occupying an attractive and secluded position. Originally created in 1972, the lakes were extensively restored and improved in 2019, including dredging and reinforcement works using bentonite, with a comprehensive restocking program and the installation of an otter-proof perimeter fence completed in 2020. The fishery has been carefully developed to provide a peaceful and well-managed venue and now operates as both a day-ticket and exclusive lake hire fishery, attracting anglers from across the region.
The lakes hold an impressive stock of specimen fish, including common and mirror carp in excess of 30lb, together with Tench, crucian carp, rudd and roach. The fishery benefits from established infrastructure, including purpose-built swims, charging facilities and ancillary amenities. The fishery offers significant scope for future income generation, whether through the continuation of the existing business model or by transitioning to a private syndicate operation with capacity for approximately 20–30 members. The fish stock is not included in the sale but may be available by separate negotiation.
Location

Gillingham also benefits from a mainline railway station with direct services to London Waterloo.
