Iirc the pond was situated on junction 25,and included the rear of bank street.
Seem to remember it being a brick yard.
If you pop into the cabin at morgans,there is or was an illustrated drawing of the pond.

I've heard some cracking stories about the pond from none other than my dad lol. Perch after perch being caught from round the sunken cars!!  Very deep and very good fishing, will try and find out more. |

In fact, and a real shame, they didnt actually build the M4 over the pond but skirted it instead, but by then it was too late and already filled in.
