5th Urmston (Aquilifer) Scout Camp Site

The 5th Urmston (Aquilifer) Scout Group camp site sits alongside Old Eea Brook (known locally as "the Trib") in the Urmston area of Greater Manchester. The group, which has been active since 1936, occupies a site of around 20 acres.

Early facilities were built from scrapped WWII RAF huts; the current two-storey headquarters replaced an older structure demolished in 2010.

Ongoing site maintenance has included modernising electrical circuits, upgrading to LED lighting, and resurfacing paths.

The brook presents a persistent challenge: Japanese knotweed fragments washing downstream can root and establish new infestations, requiring continual management.

With roughly 200 youth members and 40 or more adult volunteers, the group is one of the larger Scout organisations in the North West of England.
