The pond was created in the early 18th Century. Formerly reed edged the edge was concreted in the 1920s.
About 120m x 40m with an island about 20m x 5m.
The pond is named after the Skottowe family, who owned a mansion house, called Bury Hill House, which once stood in the area where the Guide Hut is now located.
During World War One, the park was used for training soldiers in bridge construction across Skottowes Pond. The island was created in the 1920s.
In 1953, the Lowndes family donated Lowndes Park to the Urban District Council.
