Dog Notes:

Dog Considerations:

  • Leads: Lollycocks Field is a popular local spot. Off-lead exercise may be possible in open grassy areas if your dog is well-behaved and under control, but be prepared to use a lead if busy or near ponds. On the River Slea Walk through more urban parts of Sleaford, keeping dogs on leads is advisable due to proximity to roads, other pedestrians, and town activity.
  • Water: The River Slea provides water, but assess quality and accessibility, especially in urbanised sections. Ponds in Lollycocks Field are primarily for wildlife. Carry fresh water.
  • Wildlife: Waterfowl (ducks, swans, moorhens) are common on the River Slea and ponds in Lollycocks Field. Ensure dogs do not chase or disturb them.
  • Dog Bins: Generally well-provided in both Lollycocks Field and along the main sections of the River Slea Walk within Sleaford.
  • Hazards: Proximity to water (river and ponds). Urban sections of the river walk can be close to roads or have more pedestrian traffic. Occasional litter.
