A picture of an otter has emerged swimming in a Bracknell stream.

Dubbed a "wildlife haven" the image of an otter was taken at 2am on Thursday, February 23 on the outskirts of Meadowbrook Montessori Scool

School caretaker John Jacobs set up a camera on the brook not far from Warfield Church.

He said: "The creature is about three feet long so I'm hoping it's an Otter but sadly it's not likely to stay long as the brook is devoid of fish nowadays."

"We see a great deal of the local fauna in our large set-aside backfield it's a bit of a haven from all the housing estates."

Bracknell News:

Meadowbrook Montessori on Malt Lane sits on the edge of The Cut river, which runs around the length of the school's boundary.

Public access near the area is limited allowing the school to record the comings and goings of local wildlife.
