Don't really want to argue about this, been to York last year (Elvington),
and I know that the UK has a great tradition on ponds/gardens ! :-)

Just didn't understand the "US/UK" bit.

Where I live in Yorkshire, almost all villages have a pond that has been
there for many hundreds of years, some of these are quite small, and even
dry up in the summer season. Many other small ponds / pools were formed by
the Romans, and later Monks specifically for keeping fish for food. These
would all be referred to as natural ponds, because of the habitat and
wildlife that they attract and support. Size and volume of water would not
enter into the equation
