Heatherton Pond
History
Heatherton Pond was established in 1998 as part of the Sustainable Urban Drainage System connected to the nearby Heatherton housing development across Moorway Lane. Its main purpose is to manage stormwater, with water flowing in from Pastures Hill into the southwest corner and exiting back to Hell Brook via the southeast. This setup helps maintain effective water control for the area.
Habitat
Beyond its role in water management, Heatherton Pond supports local biodiversity. Ongoing collaborations with Derby City Council aim to enhance the pond’s habitat by introducing new plantings. These efforts are designed to create a balanced environment that benefits both flora and fauna, contributing to the pond’s ecological health.

Whether you’re an experienced angler or looking to try something new, Heatherton Pond offers a tranquil setting to pursue your hobby.
