Buckland Pond

This high profile pond, in its attractive and photogenic setting, is owned by Buckland Parish Council. RACV was invited to assist with its management in 2002, and we’ve been actively involved ever since. Each year, in partnership with the local villagers, we undertake a vegetation control task, to ensure the right balance for the pond, as unfortunately it has two notable invasive alien plants growing in it, parrot's feather and crassula.
