Stamford Green Pond on Epsom Common
Epsom Common was once the 'waste' of the Manor of Epsom. This meant that it was deemed unfit for cultivation and was only used for grazing by local people. It was purchased by Epsom and Ewell Borough Council in 1936 for £4,000. Prior to the Second World War it was largely open grassland and remnant heath, grazed by cattle and pigs. During the War large areas were ploughed up and crops were grown. The poorly drained clay soil was really unsuitable for this and once the War was over cultivation ceased. However, grazing was not resumed and the Common has now rapidly grown into scrub and woodland.
The long term management aim is to remove some of the scrub to create more open areas where wild flowers can flourish. Epsom Common covers about 435 acres and is a Site of Special Scientific Interest. This view looks across Stamford Green Pond to The Cricketers pub on the other side.
