A named pond in Christchurch, at Halswell, as the open map records it.
The pin is OpenStreetMap’s own position for the pond, roughly the water’s middle. Neighbours on the register are near it, not the same record.
The record behind this
The position and the names are OpenStreetMap’s, a named lake, lagoon, wetland or spring inside the city boundary (ODbL). The dual names are recorded as the map carries them; a pin is the mapper’s position, not a surveyed mark.
