Cockpit Hole, Great Kingshill

An unusual pond well below street level, with a grassy slope at one end. I guess this would have been for animals to come down and drink in days gone by. A notice on the wall says that the pond was restored in 2008. It probably looks better in the summer without all the dead stuff in it.
