Former gravel pit now known as Mole Pond
This is what remains of a very large gravel extraction pit next to Molesey Heath. The River Mole is to the left, about 50' away and the Caravan & Camping Club, Walton site is just over the brow of the hill in the background.

Footbridge on path from River Mole to Fieldcommon Lane
Quite an elaborate bridge, to cross hardly anything. Perhaps the drainage around here was different once.

Field Common Lane, at the end of April, 2012
After many months of below-average rainfall, April 2012 turned out to be the wettest April in more than a hundred years. No spectacular floods here, but there is a good-sized puddle - just when puddles were beginning to seem like a thing of the past.

Gravel pit scenery, Molesey Heath
Not so long ago this gravel pit was much larger. While Google Earth shows the present extent of the pit, OS maps currently available are in need of revision. This is a view northwards from the southern end of the pit.
The course of the River Mole lies a little to the east, and beyond that, Island Barn Reservoir. Molesey Heath may once have been genuine heathland, but these days is a patchwork of old, flooded gravel pits and reclaimed land.

Bridge over River Mole
The bridge although mapped as a footbridge, is actually a vehicle bridge, but private and apparently part of the water company reservoir premises. The Mole sweeps round on an artificial course, to become the Ember after the Mole branches to the left beyond the bridge as a much less impressive waterway.
