The dew pond

Some days I decide I would like to run in the long grass as well as snuffle through the trees and, if the weather is fine, I persuade the boss to walk through the woods and across the fields to this pond. So far I haven't plucked up the courage to paddle into it but maybe I will one day.

From the Boss: Dew ponds are quite common on the South Downs across Sussex. Most of them date back to well before the second world war when the Downs were mainly used for sheep grazing. They are man-made ponds for watering livestock. There is a good explanation in Wikipedia.
