Miller's Pond is an 8.1-hectare (20-acre) Local Nature Reserve in Southampton in Hampshire. It is owned and managed by Southampton City Council.[1][2]

The pond is managed for both angling and wildlife.[3] There are also areas of acid grassland and semi-natural woodland.[1]

The pond is fed by springs and drains to the stream that runs through Mayfield Park.[4]

History

There has been a pond on the site since at least the mid 18th century.[4] Originally it was significantly larger than its current size and in two parts.[4] By the 1960s the pond was starting to silt up.[4] The pond was drained completely in 1966 as part of preparations for large scale commercial and residential development of the area.[4]

In 1978 with the development permanently stalled the Southampton Schools Conservation Corps obtained permission to create a new (smaller) pond on the site of the previous ponds.[4] The work was carried out over the winter of 78/79.[4] In February 2022 Sholing Valleys Study Centre announced a plan for reconstruction work on the pond involving dredging and reinforcing the banks.[5] Shortly afterwards the pond was found to be home to the invasive topmouth gudgeon.[6] These were killed and the pond restocked in January 2024.[6]
