Pond on Alder Hills Nature Reserve
Pond formed from clay workings, with the clay used for builders requirements - bricks, clay pipes, etc. Clay extraction stopped in 1948. At one time under threat of development (a huge Sainsbury's has been built on part of the original site) this remnant of old Dorset heathland with its pond remains surrounded by housing, light industrial and, of course, Sainsbury's. It is now a Nature Reserve.
