Long Copse Top Pond, located in Great Bookham, Surrey, is the larger of two ponds totaling one and a quarter acres.

It can accommodate up to 14 anglers and is home to a variety of fish species including common and mirror carp ranging from 2 to 14 pounds, with the occasional ghost carp making an appearance. Anglers often catch double figure fish, with larger fish posing a challenge due to the dense reed beds surrounding the pond.
