The Nutt Brook flows into river at the project's stretch. The Nutt Brook flows for 500 metres alongside the Erewash until it disappears from view. It suffers at them moment from shading for most of it's length. It has a firm gravel bottom, and has reasonable plant growth where visible. The brook would appear at 
this stage to offer suitable gravel area from spawing Brown Trout to make their redds, but this would have to be surveyed further.

The brook is rumoured to hold a small population of Brown Trout, with reports of anglers catching them from time to time. The brook is only fished on occasion. Any photos of fish caught from the brook would be very welcomed, and would help substantiate reports of trout from the brook.
I for one believe that the Nutt Brook would make an excellent trout fishing, albeit a challenging water requiring a stealthy approach. Extensive work is still needed to make this dream a reality.
