Summary

Description
English: Village Pond, Glaston What looks to be a formal pool is actually a pond constructed about 1740. The wording on the sign (see 364733) says,

"An ancient pond circa 1740 for soaking cart wheels to prevent ash wood shrinking from the iron tyres and also for horses hooves to prevent hardening"

I hope the horses didn't get foot rot!
