Welcome to our website with information about the East Blatchington pond, its long and fascinating history, and more recent restoration.
The Pond is cared for by a group of volunteers, but the land belongs to Seaford Council who do some of the maintenance of the site, for example the fencing.
WATER LEVELS JULY 2026
We are acutely aware of the very low water levels in the pond and have made the Council aware too.
They are looking into the possibility of adding water for us.
Meanwhile we know the fish are possibly short of oxygen, which is as crucial to their wellbeing as the water level, and we will run our pump and aerator more than usual. We apologise for the additional noise from this.
If you can offer help in rehoming fish or in other ways, please contact us, but not to report the low water levels, thank you.
Volunteer group
For news and updates about the pond please see our POSTS page. Posts
If you are interested in our work or in joining the Committee please do come along to the AGM or let us know via the Contact page.
The volunteer team meet almost every Saturday – unless the weather is really bad – from 9.30am – 11.00 – 11.30 ish. Do come down and say hello, or talk to us about the pond, our work and if you’d like to join the team. It’s very sociable as we always have a coffee break, and a great chance to catch up on the wildlife activity.
Where we are
The Pond is located at the junction of Blatchington Hill and Sutton Drove with Avondale Road.
