Overlooking the lake off Evers Road. The former Brett Aggregate site was purchased in January 2018 to deliver 330 homes, a country park with lakes, and a heritage hub on the former wartime gunpowder works. When the gunpowder works closed, the site was used for mineral extraction. Presumably, the siting of two cannons by this lake is because of the gunpowder connection.
