Longish Narrow Pond in Bellsquarry Wood

Image: © Ian Dodds Taken: 25 Jun 2020

A man-made pond, formed by damming Dedridge Burn. There were people feeding ducks at the other end on the day I was there. Apparently the pond was built by the owners of Newpark House (now a nearby hotel), who used to own the land, at some stage in 19th Century.
