The village pond in Etton near Beverley in the East Riding of Yorkshire has a centuries old history. Back then it was known as Etton Mere.
This website is a simple homage to Etton Pond by me, Karl, a local Etton resident.
I’ll be posting what I already know about the pond and investigating further the history of the pond – hopefully with the assistance of other villagers. In 2022 there’s a new project underway to do physical work on the pond to improve its appearance (led by the Parish Council), so I’ll be reporting on that here too.
If you’re in the area, pop along and visit our pond!
