Description: The green contains mature and semi-mature trees and is an attractive feature in the town, it is off Pond Hill opposite the Pond. The green contains a bench, picnic table and bin. The town leat runs from the pond and continues towards the Mill. A natural stream course also runs out of the pond south east along the valley floor. The pond is a distinctive feature in Halberton. It is located to the north of Pond Hill, and is fed by a warm natural spring, which widens into the small pond. Pond Hill dams the pond, and a natural stream and Mill Leat both flow out of the pond to the south.
