River Wylye

The Wylye is generally regarded as the most notable of the Avon tributaries. It rises 5 miles south of Warminster and flows north to the town; this uppermost reach is sometimes referred to as “The Deverill Brook”. Turning westward, it flows for another 16 miles to join the Nadder just below Wilton, shortly before the latter reaches the Avon at Salisbury a mile or so further on. So, to be exact, the Wylye is the Nadder’s tributary rather than the Avon’s, but this technicality is generally overlooked.

BOREHAM MILL

Boreham Mill is an enchanting beat, high up the Wylye system, just outside the Wiltshire market town of Warminster.

Being close to the source and with our control of the Mill sluices, the water levels and clarity are constant throughout the season.

For fans of Olly Kite this beat is a must. He is pictured fishing here in 1960 in 'Nymph Fishing in Practice'.

This is an ideal stretch for one or two Rods, with all brown trout and a few grayling.
