Langar village pond was created in 2012 in part of the car park of the Unicorn's Head pub, on the site of the traditional village pond. Unlike many other parts of Britain, the East Midlands had well below average rainfall during the second half of 2013 and early 2014, with the result that the pond was virtually empty on the occasion of my visit. The Deep water warning and No swimming notice were rather superfluous. The Langar Village Pond Trust has been working to alleviate the problem, including using the roofs of the Unicorn's Head pub to increase rainwater catchment. (Thank you to the Trust's chairman for this information.)
