View
from W: The large lake in the centre is Thrupp
Lake (lake 'E') with the smaller Bullfield Lake (lake
'F') just to the right of it. In the foreground is
Curtis' yard. The small lake beyond the large lake,
just visible over the trees, is Lake 'N'. Beyond that
are the lakes that have been filled with ash since
2001. These are, left to right, P/J. G, H/I. The shallow
wetland lake 'M' is on the right-hand edge of the
photograph. Beyond the railway are the lakes (A -
D) filled between 1984 and 2000. These lakes were
filled using a different process, which did not require
the massive clay bunds like those surrounding the
filled lakes to the west. Across the RH corner of
the picture is the river Thames with Nuneham Woods
beyond.
