  • Welcome to Matfield Pond
    We detail a bit more on the History of Matfield and then on to the new reeds and planting for the pond. We go through the variety of reeds chosen and why we use them in certain areas.
    The Matfield work party for the banks is on Sunday 19th November and the Parish Council meeting regarding the pond is on 6th November.
    We hope you enjoy the videos and subscribing and liking the video helps more people find the videos.

    I grew up in petteridge not far from here and we used to fish it loads as kids. We also used to fish petteridge lake. There was once a dagger found in matfield pond and we were told it was a murder weapon from the 1700’s 😂
    Great to see the effort being made with the pond.

    There was a pond in the new forest called Janesmoor Pond, and it was free to under 17, but a lot of fish died, and they band fishing, which should be crime we need more free fishing pond like this for kids it what got me into fishing and I've never looked back but too many of these pond are get fishermen kick off them even though we take care and have a deeper connection to them it not fair.

    Has the lake/pond got to be drained to apply the siltex, or can it be spread on top of the water to filter down?

      Hi - we hydrated limed before, we do not use siltex anymore s creates too much weed.
