Waggoners Wells

The three ponds at  Waggoners Wells in East Hampshire belonging to The National Trust are popular as a cool shady retreat on hot summer days summer and for the spectacular colourful autumn leaves
The ponds are thought to have built in the 17th century as hammer ponds for the iron industry

Near the ford, there is a memorial stone to Robert Hunter, one of the founders of the National Trust. He was involved with the purchase of Ludshott Common in 1908, and Waggoners Wells was purchased in 1919 in his memory.

The old trees here at Waggoners Wells are important for the lichens – 90 types have been found here.
