Digger sinks into Great Dunmow pond

A digger has become stuck in the silt-filled pond it is supposed to be repairing.

Restoration work began in October 2024 to 鈥榙esilt and repair鈥� the ancient Doctors Pond in Great Dunmow.

It is where inventor Lionel Lukin is thought to have tested his unsinkable lifeboat in the 1780s.
