Recreational activitiesA number of walking routes are available locally, mostly of a moderate length,[2] but including a recently established family-friendly route.[3] Other than walking, the mere is often used for sailing by the Colemere Sailing Club at different times in the year.[1] The Sailing Club has recently undergone a renovation which includes two rescue boats and some purpose-built jetties, using funding from the Sports England Olympic Legacy Fund.[4] The club has been running since 1959.[4] No public fishing is allowed on the site due to the fishing rights being leased to a private club.[1] Background informationThe main feature of the site is Cole Mere, one of the Shropshire meres, and is nearly completely enclosed by mature woodland and two hay meadows.[8] The site attracts a mixture of wildlife, and is an ideal location for birds such as wildfowl and waders including snipe, curlew, goldeneye and pochard.[5] Cole Mere is the only English site for the least water-lily.[6] and the meadow in the spring and summer is perfect for flowers such as the southern marsh orchid, meadow cranesbill and lady’s smock. Insects are also abundant, including the brown hawker dragonfly and common blue damselfly.[5] Because of its wildlife, the site has several formal designations including Local Nature Reserve, Site of Special Scientific Interest and Ramsar site.[1] To protect the site, the public are advised not to remove or collect any plants or animals.[1] ManagementA management plan for Colemere has been agreed on, and seven objectives for the site have been made, some of which include restoring the aquatic/emergent vegetation and aquatic invertebrate fauna in the open standing water habitat, and maintaining the semi-improved neutral and marshy grassland.[7] The site requires special management to keep the flower-rich meadows, and grazing is considered to be the best method, this is currently being achieved by rare breeds of Hereford cattle in the area.[1] References1. ^1 2 3 4 5 {{cite web |publisher=Shropshire Council |url=http://shropshire.gov.uk/outdoor-recreation/parks-and-countryside-sites/colemere-countryside-site |title=Colemere Countryside Site |accessdate=17 August 2013}} {{coord|52.8901|-2.8405|region:GB-SHR_type:landmark|display=title}}2. ^{{cite web |url=http://shropshire.gov.uk/media/212645/meres-meander.pdf |title=The Meres Meander |publisher=Shropshire County Council |year=2005 |accessdate=17 August 2013}} 3. ^{{cite web |url=http://shropshire.gov.uk/media/212651/colemere-family-friendly-walk.pdf |title=Family Friendly Walks: Cole Mere Collywobbles |publisher=Discover Shropshire |accessdate=17 August 2013}} 4. ^1 {{cite web |publisher=BBC News |url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-shropshire-23288526 |title=Colemere Sailing Club's Olympic legacy revamp| date=14 July 2013 |accessdate=17 August 2013}} 5. ^1 2 {{cite web |publisher=Natural England |url=http://www.lnr.naturalengland.org.uk/Special/lnr/lnr_details.asp?C=0&N=&ID=716 |title=Local Nature Reserves: Colemere |accessdate=17 August 2013}} 6. ^{{cite web |url=http://shropshire.gov.uk/media/212648/colemere-downloadable-map.pdf |title=Colemere Countryside Site (map) |publisher=Shropshire Council |accessdate=17 August 2013}} 7. ^{{cite web |publisher=Shropshire Council |url=http://shropshire.gov.uk/media/212657/colemere-plan-summary-2008.pdf |title=Colemere management plan 2008–2013 |accessdate=17 August 2013}} 1 : Country parks in Shropshire |
