Captain's Pit, Hose Side Road
Fishing pond in Hose Side Rd, a corruption of the word hoes, meaning sandhill, for this road was once a gated private road through the sandhills. Associated with a couple of local legends, this possible marl pit is popular with local anglers. In the very early days of the history of Liscard Castle when it was known as Marina Villa, a sea captain took his new bride to live there, who, on receiving news of his drowning at sea, drowned herself in a nearby small lake. This eventually became known as the 'Captain's Pit' and her spirit is said to haunt Liscard Castle to this day.
