Default Lost trout fishery

I was told of this trout fishery a few years ago by the chap at the Bakewell fly shop.
As far as I can recall it was in the Matlock Bakewell Chesterfield triangle.

I found it once . (Stored it in sat nav) now defunked.
It was on the right at the bottom of a hill just before a right hand bend then the road climbed a steep hill .
The fishery itself had a smallish trout lake perhaps 5 acres with 2 course lakes
beyond.
There was an old large caravan used as an office /club house with parking next to it.
anyone know of this place and does it still exist.

Sounds exactly like Press Manor - went last year (funnily enough on advice of Orvis Bakewell) whilst visiting Chatsworth Fair - had great afternoon.

Hi everyone what stars you are.
Thats it Press Manor.
Birkin lane ashover.S45OLQ.

ONLY TROUBLE NOW IS I THOUGHT ANOTHER FISHERY WAS PRESS MANOR.

Big farm house at end of a tarmac drive you park next to the house and walk through a wrought iron hand gate then walk alongside a wood before coming out at the top of a hill overlooking 2-3 lakes in the valley (slightly off to the right)
you walk through a grass field to get there .
Anyone recognise this place
could it be Alton Manor
