The Crammer, Devizes, Wiltshire.
Said to be the pond in which smugglers hid contraband brandy, using rakes to retrieve it. When challenged by revenue men, thay claimed they were trying to get 'that girt big cheese' (the reflection of the moon). The revenuers laughed them off.
That's why Wiltshire people are known as 'Moonrakers'.
