Great Crested Newt survey

Last November I saw a Great Crested Newt on the hill behind Kingston Hill Fields. Would it breed in our pond in the Spring? To find out we sampled the water mid-May, breeding season, and had it analysed for GCN DNA. None turned up so either our sample didn’t pick it up or it had bred somewhere else, assuming it survived the winter.
