Légende
'The Silent Pool', 1911, (1914). The Silent Pool located in Sherborne, Surrey, runs through the privately owned Albury Estate. Silent Pool is considered by some to be a sacred site. It is linked to a folklore that King John on his horse abducted a woodcutter's daughter who was forced into the deep water and drowned. According to the legend, the maiden can be seen at midnight. In December 1926, it was feared that Agatha Christie had drowned in the Silent Pool after her car was discovered at nearby Newlands Corner. From A Pilgrimage In Surrey, Vol. 2, by James S. Ogilvy.
