The Village 1909 A typical Edwardian scene, with smartly dressed children looking coyly at the camera. A mile to the west lies Fleet Pond, Hampshire's largest freshwater lake. Between 1854 and 1972 it was used by the Army; prior to that it was a fish- pond for the dean and chapter of Winchester Cathedral.
