More about this scene
Eagle Pond was named after the popular public house and one-time coaching inn the Spread Eagle (substantially rebuilt as the Eagle). The area became very popular with visitors from London after the establishment of the railway in 1856. The common association of the pond with children relates to the 1843 building of the Infant Orphan Asylum.
