Full Description
January 2008. Field Observation.
Earthwork banks surrounding the pond at Abbey Farm were noted by a member of the public [1] in January 2008. Inspection of the site confirmed that steep-sided banks up to 3m high surround the west, north, and east sides of the pond. Discussion with the current landowners revealed that the banks were created from upcast from dredging of the pond in the 1950's.
