Unstead Exit (outflow) by Andrew Lockett
The surface had more foam than usual and what looks like threadlike mats of brown algae. The phosphate reading also seems high (0.3) and nitrate (4). This could be due to having been intentionally dropping water levels in the new scrapes and barrowing in some shingle (so some ground disturbance).

Outlet into Pond Wood by Trevor Murrells
The sample was taken from a small pond fed by the two pipes, that was disconnected from a larger pond. Very little water was flowing out of the two pipes.
