Full Description

Water filled sub-triangular `Decoy Pond' marked on 1:10000 OS map, North West of Cross Farm. Dry arm extending from South East side nearly across pond. No pipes shown (S1). No further details.
Maps and aerial photographs studied as part of the Suffolk Coastal NMP project show that the pond is of modern date and was constructed sometime between 1958 and 1962. The feature has therefore not been plotted as part of the project.
