GeoGraph - photograph every grid square

Hello, has anyone else seen the small reservoir in this grid square? approximately at : OS grid, 235040,668785 it is not denoted on the map in anyway as far as i can see.

If you wish to find this site, Go west the B788, from the Knapps towards the cross roads at the war memorial, at Milton Farm? (on the right handside of the road) you will notice a broken gate on the left leading into some woodland, walk about 15 metres southwards, and you should come across it.

It is somewhat of an antequity, I do not know from when it dates but it certainly no longer in use. It is approximately circular and 5 metres in diameter, it is sunken to a depth of about 2m and has old stone walls. I previously didn't realise this to be a reservoir as in summer it is dry, with grass and other plant life growing on bottom.

I find it to be quite curious as it appears to be at a high point in the land, and I don't understand from where it is fed, I suspect it was once used to supply water to Duchal House.

If anyone knows anything about this please get in touch. If there is any interest I will get a photograph.
