Full Description
January 2014. Rapid Identification Survey. HA 79.
An oval pond, measuring about 30m by 25m by up to 2.2m deep. The base is undulating; the sides slope gently. It is connected to two ditches on the south (NHER 61010). It was dry at the time of the survey visit. It is located within Lynford Park.
This pond is shown on 19th century and modern maps. See (S1), (S2) and (S3).

May 2019. Breckland National Mapping Programme.
A possible pond is seen as an earthwork on visualised lidar data (S4).
This earthwork has not been transcribed separately - the transcription has been recorded as part of NHER 30470 along with further features relating to Lynford Park and Gardens identified from the Aerial Investigation and Mapping (AIM) survey. The mapped extent of this existing HER record has however been amended to correlate with the location and extent of the feature on the lidar imagery [1].
