The smaller of two lakes in this part of the parkland forming part of the Oxclose Wood site. A vast area of land, that included the former Sherwood Colliery spoil tip(s) has been developed in an unstaffed country park, albeit not designated as such. The elevated footpath on the right connects the section of Oxclose Lane nearest to the village of Mansfield Woodhouse with the Northfield Lane side of park, i.e. in the past the tip(s) expanded upwards and outwards and a series of footpaths have now been constructed to encircle and surmount the landscaped tips.
