What interesting photos Arthur, thank you so much for sharing these. I have always known that pond as 'the horse pond' but until now have never known where the name came from!

P.S. Do you know what year these are from at all?
ReplyDeleteNo indication of the dates. You might find the article in this link interesting https://www.surreyarchaeology.org.uk/sites/default/files/SAS452.pdf
ReplyDeleteGreat pics Arthur! I had heard that the military used the pond for thier cavalry units but its quite another thing to actually see them in action.
ReplyDeleteReally fascinating - thank you. I think there's a lot of amazing history to CC - like Queen Victoria visiting and loving the view (who doesn't) and the name of Hungry Hill being due to the number of very poor people living there - so I was told.
ReplyDeleteIs the colour picture painted or original colour do you think?
ReplyDeleteJust that its all very green so quite interesting that it seems more grassy than heathery if it is real colour! I suspect its been added though?
