This lake, or 'pool' in Sutton Park, is one of our favourite places to go. There are paths through the woods all around it, and which also lead on to Bracebridge Pool and Little Bracebridge pool. There is also a nice Bistro nearby which we like, and the much more upmarket "Boathouse" Restaurant - a very picturesque place.
Sutton Park has a fascinating history, and we really appreciate living so close to it!
Blackroot Pool was built in the 18th century with the primary aim of powering a watermill. The lease which allowed the pool to be constructed was granted by the Sutton Corporation in 1757 for 2 shillings (£0.10), well below what appears to have been the 'market rate'. However, the lessees were the Corporation's Warden and his nephew. The mill was initially used for leather dressing, but later became a water-powered saw mill. The modern saw mill is used to make gates, fences and other timber products from timber produced within Sutton Park. The pool is approximately 12 acres (5 hectares) in size. Angling is permitted in the pool; the main species of fish found here are Bream, Roach, Carp and Pike.
I LOVE INVITES - BUT NO MULTI-INVITES PLEASE!!! THANKS!
Went out with Jerome this morning for some Mona pool work, and I must say we were gone from the start. All reports had the tide around the wrong way so we thought we were rolling up to a 1.9m high tide with a 3-4ft swell. Yes we thought over flowing pool , well it was low tide and no over flow.
This pool has been shot to pieces so I thought I would try and get something different and this is what I have come up with.
I would say the best shot I have taken for a while. I've been so busy with work this year and have felt I've been rushing my shot and processing a little, so I really took the time to slow down and have a good think about the task. I got to a point before today where I would just sit there look at a shot and literally have a mental blank as to where to start. In a sense my work flow went out the window.
It was a little scary, four years of self training went out the window. A big sigh of relief here.
I was told a few years ago to just slow down and have a good look around, take a deep breath and let it flow. Really good advice.
Hope you like.
this is my three best friends and my twin sister doing some cheerleading moves today! we love to cheer together and that is how all of us became best friends! xoxo

This pool is sited on the side of a mountain and just beyond the line of the pool the hillside drops away to the small port town of Soufriere, St. Lucia. The mountains in the distance are the twin peaks of The Pitons.
