Blue Waters Pond
The lake fills a former lignite mine and clay pit, both used in the pottery industry here on the southern side of Bovey Tracey http://boveytraceyhistory.org.uk/topics/domestic-fuel-victorian/ . The extensive mine workings have now led to a problem for the residents of the adjacent New Park park home development (right), because, as Image] and Image] illustrate, Ashburton Road, from which this was taken, closed in March 2020 "after a landslip and a disused mining tunnel under the road was found to be in danger of collapsing" https://www.middevonadvertiser.co.uk/article.cfm?id=118894&headline=ELDERLY%20HIT%20BY%20FEARS%20OF%20ROAD%20COLLAPSE§ionIs=news&searchyear=2020 ; the road will remain closed to traffic until August 2021.
