More about this scene
This picturesque small lake, often complete with ducks, sits at the northern end of a common in a large village. Prickend marks the end of one expanse of land that stretches from Petts Wood in the south and to Summer Hill in the west. The pond dates back to at least the 16th century, and is associated with the Manors of Chislehurst, Scadbury and St Paul's Cray. In a hot summer the pond decides to dry up until the autumn rains descend.
