		The provision of good quality ponds, lakes and rivers should be welcomed by all naturalists; it is far better to see a small pond being developed for fishing rather than the often too common practice in the past of filling them in or allowing the pond to become choked with weed and scrub.
		The provision of a fish ladder is a pre-requisite for the fish to access the upper reaches of the River Yarrow (and possibly the Black Brook) to accomplish, what would be, the most significant event in the piscatorial history of the Chorley area.
		This species is primarily a river fish and does not, as far as is known, occur in the Chorley rivers.
