Setley Pond occupies the southernmost extension (dating from World War 2) of a gravel pit founded in Victorian times or earlier which covered the area of the present day car parks and land northwards towards the road.
The part of the pond which is used for model boating extends from the car park southwards to the “island”, a distance of about 100m. The shallower water beyond the island is a haven for the New Forest animals and birds including the pond’s herons. It extends a further 50m if the pond is “full” but dries out when the water level is low. The top photo is a view looking northwards towards the car park following a dry summer (2011) when most of the region south of the island had dried out.
