Bracknell: Allsmoor Pond

Allsmoor Pond is fed by Bull Brook and is one of several balancing ponds in the Bracknell area, designed to hold a much larger amount of water than normal in a flood event and then let the excess water drain away downstream at a managed rate so that the land and property downstream does not flood.
