The ponds at Lees Lane are at least 150 years old and although some are part of the natural landscape, most were created after marl was dug out by farmers to fertilise the local sandy soils. The ponds and surrounding land are now maintained as a nature reserve. Friends of Lees Lane Ponds http://neston.org.uk/friends-of-lees-lane-ponds/
