Hi Stephen,

Don't bother mate, I asked and got a total no for the Goyt, when I asked why, they said in case I inadvertently transferred the disease they carry to another river. I used to watch the Herons taking  and eating them on the far bank of the river near Bredbury.

That's a shame as there good eating brabyns park used to have a lot of them in & I've seen a dead crayfish shell on the river etherow while I've been walking the dog so they must be in there as well

I was asked to trap some Crayfish  by the landowner but the Environment Agency has said they don’t issue licences for ST15 postcodes. Anyone know why?

It will because the area is likely to still hold the native white claw crayfish, which are now endangered due a virus carried by the American signals.
