Cauldwell Dam is one of Ashfield's oldest venues and has a great local member feeling, with some members fishing it for years. It is a pear shaped pond of around just over two and half  acre's. The venue as good secure parking arrangements.

There are trees around the edge as well as lilies and reeds in places. It has two pegs 1 and 2 which suit the disabled angler and the rest are comfortable pegs thanks to the local bailiffs and their hard work over the years. The pond is secured by our access key and as with all venues must remain locked at all times. The pond is spring fed via two dykes from the out lying land and as depths from 3/4ft to around 5ft in places and the bottom is mostly gravel with silty areas.
