Larkfield Tarn
So peaceful in the early morning.
Rawdon Model Boat Club
The best model boat club in Yorkshire.
You will be sure of a warm welcome in our friendly clubhouse.
There has been a model boat club on Larkfield Tarn since the 1930’s.
The tarn was constructed in the 1820s to supply water to a nearby textile mill, but the lake is now owned by Rawdon Model Boat Club.
Rawdon Model Boat Club was formed in 2003 after the dissolution of the club that preceded it.
With lots of hard work, and some generous donations and bequests by members, the club was transformed in to what you see today, the best model boat club in the North of England, (probably!)
Polite Notice
Rawdon Model Boat Club is the proud owner of Larkfield Tarn.
Because we own the lake, it is Private, and we do NOT allow fishing.
While we encourage all kinds of model boats we do NOT allow petrol or diesel engines of any sort.
Similarly, we do NOT allow flying models, drones, aircraft or helicopters, etc.
Swimming is NOT allowed at any time.
Thank you for your understanding and co-operation.
