    In the centre of Richmond Park sits Pen Ponds; two lakes, the Upper and the Lower Pond. You can walk along the footpath that separates them. On the lakes are three islands which provide roosting and nesting spots for birds. Keep an eye out for a heron keeping a silent watchful eye on proceedings.

    There is a coffee van a short walk south east from here at the Pen Ponds Car Park.
