Reminiscing about the old farm and its farmyard at the bottom of Glew Lane, Jenny.

As a nipper, i used to go through that yard quite a lot. If my memory IS correct, just inside the farmyard, from the roadway entrance, then turning towards the far left, there was a small pond of sorts. However, even then, the pond didn't seem sufficiently deep enough to cover the knees, let alone up to someones neck.

Behind the farmhouse and actually on Glew Lane itself, there was a larger pond at the far right. This pond did not appear deeper than waist deep, but nowhere near neck-deep.
Of course, if either of these ponds had been the scene of Mrs. Holroyd's neck-deep experience, then obviously, it had been filled in to a shallower depth with earth, obviously to prevent a further such occurrence.
