Ingersley Vale (or Clough) mill pond. This pond provided the water to turn the waterwheel that powered Ingersley Vale mill. The water area is very largely reduced today due to lack of dredging, nature has taken over. In 2016, it was acquired by a local couple who have significantly tidied the site and are managing both the vegetation and the wild life. The waterfall, just off the left of the picture, remains one of the most visited locations in Bollington/Rainow.
