Pool by the River Slea

I've passed this pool a couple of times on a walk along the River Slea from Sleaford and never worked out why it is there. It borders the river but its flow into the Slea is controlled. The hut at one end of it appears to be linked with its purpose.The pool is clearly man-made, at times looks stagnant, and has reeds encroaching on it. My eye is drawn to it because the straw-burning power station can be glimpsed beyond and together, on a frosty morning, they make an interesting composition.
