Visitors to a popular Nottingham beauty spot have been left "shocked" after finding dead fish on the bank of the lake. Those taking a trip to Highfields Park, have spotted a number of dead fish which are creating a "disgusting" smell at the site.
The park sits next to the University Park Campus for the University of Nottingham but is under the control of Nottingham City Council. It is one of Nottingham's most popular green spots, with an ice cream shop on site.
But the appearance of the dead animals has cast a shadow over some people's visits. Gemma Hemsley, a 34-year-old hairdresser currently on maternity leave took a trip to Highfield Park on Monday, June 19, when she noticed the issue.
