Cockshoot Broad is a 5-hectare (12-acre) nature reserve north-east of Norwich in Norfolk. It is managed by the Norfolk Wildlife Trust.[1] It is part of the Bure Broads and Marshes Site of Special Scientific Interest,[2] and the Broadland Ramsar site[3] and Special Protection Area,[4] and The Broads Special Area of Conservation.[5] It is also part of the Bure Marshes National Nature Reserve[6] and Nature Conservation Review site, Grade I.[7]
The water quality of this broad is very high and it has large beds of water lilies, which provide a habitat for many insects, including red eyed and variable damselflies.[1]
