The 73 hectare Titchmarsh Local Nature Reserve consists of two lakes, a woodland, river banks and areas of grass and scrub, in which some ponds have been dug. In 1989 it was declared a Local Nature Reserve by Northamptonshire County Council, with the approval of the Nature Conservancy Council and, of the many wetlands resulting from gravel extraction, this is the only area protected in this way. The main woodland, which contains an important heronry, is on the site of an old duck decoy created by Lord Lilford in the 19th century.
