River Eye SSSI
Sites of Special Scientific Interest in Leicestershire
River Eye SSSI is a 6.0 hectares (15 acres) biological Site of Special Scientific Interest covering a stretch of the River Eye between Ham Bridge, north-west of Stapleford, and the eastern outskirts of Melton Mowbray in Leicestershire. It is a Nature Conservation Review site. This unpolluted clay stream has rich and diverse flora and fauna. Marginal vegetation includes bulrush, branched bur-reed and greater pond sedge, while shallow, fast-flowing stretches have curled pondweed and perfoliate pondweed. The river runs through private land but it is crossed by roads and footpaths.
