nice pond, sir, presumably serving as dogdip ?

That's the small one which is linked to our larger one off to the left, out of shot. The dogs allowed in for training etc in but only when they are told they can. These ponds, and a couple of others over by the barns close to what was the yard where the farm horses were kept, have been here hundreds of years and are marked on the earliest thythe maps. The biggest pond over by the yard has an entry and exit slope so the horses could go in after a days work in the fields etc. Other animals could use it too and of course they would stand the wagons and carts in there to tighten up the wooden wheels in the summer. The water caused the wood to swell and iron tyres contract.
