Featured Article - Carr Mill

On a sunny day, there is nothing more relaxing than a stroll around Carr Mill Dam. Walk or cycle around Carr Mill Dam and watch the birdlife, or just admire the views over billinge and the surrounding countryside. Carr Mill is an excellent venue for walkers, cyclists, joggers, anglers or photographers

The Lancashire Powerboat Racing Club have their clubhouse on Carr Mill Dam and hold a series of powerboat racing events throughout the year.
Photographers will find excellent scenes to photograph and on race days will be able to photograph the powerboats.
The St. Helens Angling Association also use Carr Mill Dam and hold regular match fishing competitions there.
The dam is at one end of the Sankey Valley country park, so a full day out could be enjoyed combining a visit to both and enjoying a rest for a meal break at the Waterside pub, the Ship inn near the Sankey Valley Ranger station, or the Carr Mill boathous cafe on a race day.
