Waterslade Spring

Image: © Ian Capper Taken: 9 Oct 2011

One of a number of springs around Redhill Common - see Image for another one. Although its accompanying pool is obvious, it has been largely dry for some years. The white brick above the arch originally carried the words Waterslade Spring. The name derives from the farm that used to be here, Waterslade Farm, before it was developed in the 1870s.
