New Earswick Nature Reserve ? Bracket fungus on a stump
The reserve was formed on the site of the brickworks created to provide bricks for the early stages of development of New Earswick village from around 1900. It closed in 1933 and the area became wild.
In 1973 it was established as a Designated Educational Nature Reserve, since 2019 leased to the group formed some years previously to manage the reserve. The pool resulted from the extraction of clay for the bricks and is naturally filled from groundwater. The only other physical remains are a section of brick paving, possibly the base of a beehive kiln, and the concrete base of the windpump used to keep the claypit free of water. Due to vandalism, the reserve has had to be securely enclosed and is only open to keyholders and on limited open days.
