Description
At SO 65469436 is an artificial hollow with an average depth of 1.1m. It lies in flat land and is as shown on 25" AM, though there are traces of an unportrayable outer bank on the west side. The farmer thought it was a fish-pond and it has that appearance. <1a>
The possible fishpond has had a further pond constructed on its north side and both are water filled. <1b>
