That seems to be what I settled on too, e.g. http://www.openstreetmap.org/way/189511931

These are supposed to work by quickly filling during heavy rainfall and slowly emptying into the conventional drainage through a restricted outfall thus spreading out the rainfall and preventing flooding. -- cheers Chris Hill (chillly) On 07/05/2017 17:22, Steve Brook wrote: Many new UK housing estates are required to be built with Attenuation Ponds / Sustainable Drainage schemes as part of their development. These are to control rain water runoff during storms and consist of a pond surrounded by an embankment with a controlled release structure to slow down drainage of the water to the river system. The relevant features might be * Low or normal water level of pond * High water level or top of embankment * Land use/vegetation between low/high water marks is water tolerant/marsh plants * Structures for water input and output – often brickwork and filter screens round a pipe. Has anyone any experience of mapping and tagging such a structure? Are there any examples of where this has been done?
