The Trout Fishery is by the walled garden, a short walk from the Hall, with fine views of the surrounding countryside towards Ludlow. The facilities are superb, suitable for any angler of any age, and regularly stocked with large, hard fighting rainbow and brown trout. The Fishery is reached by a private road about half a mile south of Diddlebury village and is well signed from the B4368 about 5 miles east of Craven Arms and 14 miles west of Bridgnorth.

There is a hard car park close to the water, a fisherman’s pavilion with microwave, w.c. and refreshments. Picnic facilities are available and the layout of the fishery is convenient for disabled fishermen.There are 2 lakes. Garden Lake and Corve Lake. Garden Lake is two and a half acres with two small islands an Corve Lake, the larger at over three acres, has one large island. The lakes are spring fed from the Diddle, a small stream which runs into the river Corve and, in dey summers, the water supply is supplemented by a borehole. The lakes are regularly stocked with hard fighting rainbow trout from 1½lbs to double figures, with an average fish weight of about 2½ lbs. Brown trout must always be returned to the water.
