Horse Pond


We decided as the water is still so low and the weather just perfect to start clearing around the pond. We need to get more sunlight onto the pond. and remove some of the larger more overgrown ash and willows . Two thirds of the base is solid made up of round flints and chalk. Up until about 60 years ago the horses that worked the farm would have come to drink here. The pond must be hundreds of years old. We are very lucky that Margaret who was born here in the 1930's, likes to visit and tell us some of the history of Bungeons Farm.
