Green Pond is in the middle of Fritham Plain, a heathland plateau to the southwest of Fritham village. The pond is a watering hole for the Commoners' stock on this otherwise high and dry hill, and since it doesn't feature on the 1940s maps I assume it was dug out specifically for this purpose (like Longcross and Ocknell ponds).
