Photo showing an overgrown pond that is actually part of a castle moat. Although the water is clear and there are fish living in the water (golden rudd), the pond is slowly becoming throttled with invasive Canadian pond weed, algae and blanket weed, due to the sunny weather. A pair of Mallard ducks have found one of the few remaining open patches of water.
