BODIAM POND.
Out of wight half a mile off. near the top of the south slope of the rock. was Bodiam Pond. This, we suppose, he excavated, and on the site thus obtained he planted the walls of the castle. When they were built the strong springs of water were allowed to collect again, and thus formed the lake in which the castle stands.
The idea of a great castle with huge round corner towers, stand- ing in a great lake of water and approached by a narrow cause. way of masonary strictly guard- ed by barbicans. was no new idea of Dalyngridge. In his piratical harryings of the French Coast, to which we must turn later. he must often have seen and studied the castle of Crotoy, on the estuary of the Somme. We have a 13th-century drawing of that castle rising sheer out of a great sheet of water, which might be a first sketch of what was built it Bodiam.
