Fisheries Survey Report of the River Great Ouse: Brackley to Newport Pagnell 30 of July to the 20 August 2013 Fisheries survey report of the River Great Ouse: Brackley to Newport Pagnell 30th of July to the 20th August 2013 SUMMARY The 2013 survey cycle recorded a number of exceptional specimen fish and some strong, if localised, roach populations were also found. The increased population of silver fish has meant that stock density has improved at most locations since the previous survey cycle. Perhaps unsurprisingly catches were linked to habitat quality with those sites offering riffle and pool habitat such as Manor Farm, Mill Farm Gayhurst and Wolverton Mill offering the greater catches of rheophillic (flow loving) species such as dace, chub and barbel. The slower glide and slack reaches produced stronger roach catches and occasional common bream. Standing crop has decreased at some locations due to the absence of large common bream found in 2010 and fewer chub being recorded at some sites. RESULTS Seventeen species and one hybrid were recorded over the ten sites sampled. List of species caught: Roach [Rutilus rutilus] Spined loach [Cobitis taenia] Gudgeon [Gobio gobio] Barbel [Barbus barbus] Dace [Leuciscus leuciscus] Roach x common bream hybrid [Rutilus rutilus x Abramis brama] Perch [Perca fluviatilis] Brown / sea trout [Salmo trutta] Bullhead [Cottus gobio] Ruffe [Gymnocephalus cernuus] Minnow [Phoxinus phoxinus] 3-spined stickleback [Gasterosteus aculeatus] Chub [Leuciscus cephalus] Tench [Tinca tinca] Pike [Esox lucius] Brook lamprey [Lampetra planeri] Stone loach [Barbatula barbatula] Common bream [Abramis brama] Density and standing crop pie charts with % values and colour key Species composition by density of fish >99mm Species composition by standing crop of fish >99mm The average density (number of fish in a given area) of all species (>99mm) over all sites equates to 12.2 Ind./100m2 Total average standing crop (weight of fish in a given area) of all species (>99mm) over all sites equates to 1102 g/100m2. The largest fish recorded during the survey included a barbel of 730 mm (13lb) from Mill Farm Gayhurst and a chub of 534mm (6lb 8oz) from Manor Farm.

Our policy is to do this in a way that maximises the social, recreational and economic benefits arising from the sustainable exploitation of the fish stocks that underpin fisheries. To help deliver this duty, we have a National Fisheries Monitoring Programme (NFMP) to describe the status of our fish populations and inform our fisheries management to meet international, national and local data needs. Sites are regularly reviewed to maintain a representative sample of fish populations and the water body as a whole in order to retain a comparable dataset. Sites designated for the national fisheries monitoring programme cannot be altered, unless there is a valid health and safety concern or there has been a review of policy during the monitoring period. METHODOLGY: Ten sites were surveyed on the river Great Ouse between the 30th of July and the 20th of August 2013. The sites were sampled using a combination of electric fishing and drag down seine netting methodology depending on the nature of the site. Electric fishing: This survey technique uses the physiological effect of an electric field in water to attract and immobilise fish. Electrodes, immersed in the water, stimulate a fishes nervous system so that it swims towards the operator, or is unable to swim away, and can be caught. Image 1 shows the typical components of an electric fishing system. In shallow streams it is generally possible to wade upstream within the channel using generator powered equipment towed within a small boat, (Image 1). When rivers deepen or site depth is variable, electric fishing from a boat using generator powered equipment is often the preferred method. The boat is manoeuvred downstream on ropes by an operative on either bank controlling the speed, direction and channel positioning. Stop nets are positioned across the channel isolating the survey site preventing fish from migrating Image 1. into and out of the survey area. The electric fishing operation is repeated until a 50% reduction in the total number of fish caught has been achieved (catch depletion). Seine netting: Stop nets are positioned across the channel to isolate the survey site and prevent fish from migrating into and out of the survey area (seine 3 & 4 on image 3 below). A catching net is set at the lowermost extent of the survey site (seine 2) and a heavily weighted net is then laid across the channel (seine 1) which is drawn downstream driving fish into the catching net. The catching net is drawn into the bank to encircle the driving seine which is then removed. Fish are then trapped within the catching net which may be hauled in. The netting operation is repeated until a 50% reduction in the total number of fish caught has been achieved. The nets are constructed from 10mm knotless mesh which is relatively soft and helps to minimize fish damage. Floats are attached along the top edge and a lead-line along the bottom edge so that the net hangs vertically within the water column. Image 3. Fish captured by both techniques are measured to the nearest millimetre and scale samples are taken for age and growth analysis. Results are reported primarily utilising fish greater than 99mm as both methods have been shown to lose efficiency on fish below this length. Supporting evidence is also presented using total catch figures i.e. fish of all lengths. These figures are likely to be an underrepresentation of stock and where included should be viewed with caution. COMBINED SURVEY RESULTS The average density (number of fish in a given area) of all species (>99mm) over all sites equates to 12.2 Ind./100m2 Total average standing crop (weight of fish in a given area) of all species (>99mm) over all sites equates to 1102 g/100m2. Roach were the most common fish (>99mm) over the ten sites surveyed with a mean density estimate of 6.1 individuals for every 100m2 of river surveyed, or a 50 % share of the population. Dace populations were subdominant representing a 21% share of the total population with an estimated mean density of 2.5ind./100m2. Figure 1. Mean density of fish (>99mm) in the River Great Ouse 2013 (Mill Farm excluded) Chub were the dominant species’ by weight with a mean standing crop estimate of 317.8 g/100m2 and representing 29% of the total weight of fish captured. Roach populations were subdominant by weight at 281.7 g/100m2 (26% of standing crop), Pike were the third most important species with an estimated 209.1g/100m2 representing a 19% share of the total weight of fish caught, the comparatively low numbers caught does not point to a predator prey imbalance. Figure 1a. Mean standing crop of fish (>99mm) from the River Great Ouse 2013 (Mill Farm data excluded) Figure 2: Density of species >99mm at site level 2013 Figure 2 shows the numerical prevalence of roach which were generally either the dominant or the subdominant species at each site sampled, the notable exceptions to this being the Mount Mill Farm and Manor Farm sites. Site 4631 (Passenham) provided the highest density recorded with a population estimate of 29.4 ind./100m2 which was chiefly comprised of roach. Figure 2a indicates the importance of chub and roach to the overall standing crop estimate, the capture of large barbel at Manor Farm is also apparent. Figure 2a: Standing crop of species >99mm at site level 2013 SITE LEVEL DATA Site No. 4622: Westbury Species present (All lengths) Species Number Species Number Bullhead [Cottus gobio] 59 Perch [Perca fluviatilis] 12 Roach [Rutilus rutilus] 35 Stone loach [Barbatula barbatula] 4 Dace [Leuciscus leuciscus] 29 Brown / sea trout [Salmo trutta] 3 Chub [Leuciscus cephalus] 16 Gudgeon [Gobio gobio] 3 Minnow [Phoxinus phoxinus] 16 3-spined stickleback [Gasterosteus aculeatus] 2 Population Composition Density (Lengths >99mm) In 2013 the fish population at Westbury was dominated by roach and dace.

Alternatively, park in the Ouse Valley Car Park off Newport Road, and proceed in an anti-clockwise direction on the Sustrans National Route 6 through the Ouse Valley Park. As you pass through the Floodplain Forest Nature Reserve, following the contours of the River, be sure to look out for the wild Konik ponies introduced in 2017. If you are completing the shorter 5 mile version you will leave the route just before the Iron Trunk Aqueduct and head back to Wolverton, joining the main route at Stratford Road. If you are completing the full 9.5 mile route, you will continue along the leisure path into Stony Stratford Nature Reserve, finally departing The Parks Trust land at Millfield and head along Willow Lane into Silver Street. You will pass the Stony Stratford market square and Wall Mural by Zoe Maslen (2016), before crossing the original Roman Road – Watling Street. Don’t forget to explore the Old Tram Sheds before heading out of Stony Stratford back to Wolverton.

  • Preliminary Report on the Archaeological Investigations at Northampton Road, Brackley, Northamptonshire
    Albion Archaeology Preliminary report on the archaeological investigations at Northampton Road, Brackley, Northamptonshire Photo1: Aerial view of the Northampton Road development area from south Introduction Between June and October 2014 Albion Archaeology undertook open-area excavation in advance of mixed-use development by Albion Land plc on land off Northampton Road, Brackley. An area of c. 3ha was excavated divided into two main parts of unequal size, exposing an unenclosed middle Iron Age settlement. The main part of the settlement extended over c. 1.6ha and was in the northern excavation area, possibly continuing beyond the limit of the development area (see figure at the back of this report). It was characterised by roundhouses, ditched enclosures, post-built structures and an abundance of storage pits. Similar features were found to the south and in the southern excavation area, although these were smaller in number and occurred in a much lower density than in the main settlement area. Roundhouses Evidence for c. 20 roundhouses was identified. They were defined by pennanular gullies with E-facing entrances. The area defined by the gullies ranged from 8–15m in diameter, whilst the gullies themselves were generally shallow and only a few had been redug. The majority of the gullies are assumed to have served a drainage function with no structural slots associated with the outer walls being identified.
