Not, as some visitors think, an opportunity to see gaudy carp, but corruption of decoy pond; though opinion is divided as to whether it ever was one. Plenty of mallards, though their water activity is limited today by ice. For more information, visit http://www.bournestreampartnership.org.uk/coy_pond.htm
