Richmond Park spent may
a happy hour in here with my pals. My mother often brought us done to the
'Richie' for a picnic and while she sat knitting on the shawl laid out on the grass
we would run around and play games .... great times.

Over the years this pond has been used as
a boating pond, for model ships and a swan sanctuary.
When I was a boy we would play on the boats and fish for baggy minnows
which we put into jam jars
