Pond and springs in the Tournay-Solvay park

Along the pond that adorns the Tournay-Solvay park, on the same side and just a few meters apart, there are three springs that feed this water. Like many springs, they are located at the foot of the valley, where a sandy permeable geological zone meets an impermeable clay-like geological zone. Over time, the flowing water has carved out a sort of sinkholes, although it is also possible that these have been shaped and widened by former owners, as evidenced by the presence of small stone walls, which are not very visible today because they are covered with vegetation.
