We have many old photographs of the pond at the end of Husseys Lane. The map below shows the area in 1870, the pond is coloured blue. |
The pond was not always there - in the 1930s it had virtually disappeared and was classifed as arable land. The photograph below shows why. |
In the last fifteen years it has been cleaned out and is now a haven for wildlife, although not so visible from the road as in 1912. |
