Wire Mill Lake is a picturesque freshwater lake located in Surrey, England. Spanning an area of approximately 4 hectares, the lake is surrounded by lush greenery and offers a tranquil escape from the bustling city life. It is a popular destination for both locals and tourists alike, attracting nature enthusiasts and outdoor enthusiasts.

The lake itself is formed through the damming of the River Mole, and it serves as a vital water source for the local ecosystem. Its calm waters provide a habitat for a diverse range of aquatic flora and fauna, including various species of fish, water birds, and amphibians.

Adjacent to the lake is a well-maintained pool area, which offers visitors the opportunity to indulge in recreational activities such as swimming and sunbathing. The pool is equipped with facilities like changing rooms and lifeguards, ensuring a safe and enjoyable experience for all.

Surrounding the lake and pool area is a beautiful pond, which adds to the overall charm of the location. The pond is home to various water plants and insects, providing a rich ecosystem for exploration and observation.

Additionally, Wire Mill Lake features a freshwater marsh, which acts as a natural filter for the water before it feeds into the lake. The marsh is a haven for wetland plants and plays a crucial role in maintaining the water quality and supporting the local wildlife.

Overall, Wire Mill Lake offers a harmonious blend of natural beauty and recreational activities, making it a must-visit destination for those seeking a peaceful retreat in the heart of Surrey.

Newchapel Road (B2028),  Surrey Communications from the Horley-Gatwick-Crawley conurbation to the eastwards are notoriously bad.  The closure of the Tunbridge Wells - East Grinstead - Three Bridges railway must have been one of the most ridiculous of the Beeching idiocies, while the A264 is just a bad joke, as anyone condemned to use it daily will confirm.  Here we see the B2028 from Lingfield, looking eastwards at a very rare quiet moment when not a single car was in view.

'Avondale', Newchapel Road, near Lingfield, Surrey The B2028 is the westerly outlet from Lingfield towards Gatwick and Crawley, and as such, carries a very heavy traffic.  Here a postman prepares to deliver mail to one of the well-heeled houses on the north side of the road.

Hedgecourt Lake, Surrey Hedgecourt Lake, also known as Domewood Lake, lies just north of the A264.  Presumably it is used for fishing, although I did not see any anglers there - just plenty of water birds and a sleepy swan.

Farm buildings, East Park Farm, Surrey This farm is reached down a small lane off the north side of the B2028.  Incidentally, geographers working in this gridsquare should be warned not to go onto the notorious Plantation Estate, where strangers, especially those with cameras, are very far from welcome.

Stubpond Lane A minor road leading south to Felbridge off West Park Road (B2028), but (in part) not maintained as fit for motor vehicles (although perfectly passable if you don't mind a few potholes).
