Abstract
Denaby Ings is a wetland area situated 2 km north-east of Mexborough in South Yorkshire, UK. The main lake is 640 m long and between 50 and 230 m wide and lies between an old railway embankment to the south-west and agricultural land to the north-east. There is a small inflow at SE 5025 0080 and the outflow is a controlled sluice gate at SE 5026 0058 . There is a smaller sluice gate at SE 50303 00588. There is a smaller pond to the west across the road which was not surveyed. The 32 ha site is important for its mosaic of open water, reed swamp, mud f1ats and hay meadows which support large numbers of wintering and nesting birds. It is a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) and has been managed by the Yorkshire Wildlife Trust since 1967. Figure 1 shows some photographs of the site.
