Description
The surround to a fish pond with islands, located approximately 300 metres south of the house, dates from the early 18th century. It is constructed from cobble and sandstone. The fish pond surround is about 250 metres long and 20 metres wide, lined with coursed cobbles. In the centre, there are remains of two D-shaped islands, separated by a narrow channel, with wall faces made of coursed dressed sandstone, which are heavily overgrown. This estate was originally called Newby Park. These structures may represent the canal and the foundations of a bridge built between 1704 and 1710 by Sir William Robinson while he was preparing to construct his new house.
