The Pike in Hollow Pondsby Alan Wylie |
|
|
In 1976, one of the hottest summers ever recorded, myself and my family moved from Glasgow to Leytonstone. I was 10 years old and loved to use Epping forest as my playground. One of my favourite places was the Hollow Ponds, disused gravel pits. |

One of the stories about the ponds is that there was a giant pike that could swallow ducks and geese whole, although I never knew anyone that had actually seen it. |
