NT0173 : Hill pond, Riccarton Hills

taken 10 years ago, 3 km from Kingscavil, West Lothian, Scotland

Hill pond, Riccarton Hills
Hill pond, Riccarton Hills
This is the largest of the three ponds in the Riccarton Hills. Of the other two, only the one in NT0173 : Agriculture and industry in central Scotland is at least semi permanent. The other NT0173 : Pond in the Riccarton Hills seems to be an occasional feature. To have one of the size of the one in this photo with a surface area of almost 1500m2 is quite unexpected, being located almost at the summit of the hills.
