The Village Pond
We all tend to forget that it is only fairly recently that a piped water supply was laid on for every property in the village.
In the past most houses had their own well and in some cases a pump. One exception was a group of properties in the centre of the village who shared access to a public pump.
This was next to the Village Pond on the East side of Norwich Road.
This all came to light recently when a major clearance effort cleaned out the pond. It is hoped that this will have significant benefits for local wildlife.
