Re: Lakes from the past.

I would not have called The Dam on Downall Green Road a lake, having played there many times over 60 years ago, it was more of a boggy patch on Millingford Brook where people sometimes dumped their rubbish, the sharp bend to the right in the road was always known as Dam Corner.
