Day 1 of pond digging - only removed the turf so far. Might be the effort of digging but feels big right now - roughly 3m x 2m. Having said that, this size will include the border/ bog garden bit too. We’ll level off the ground from here, and then dig down.
We’re defo following the wildlife trust guides so there will be a beach/ramp with easy access/escape for critters. Not quite sure how deep it will end up - that might depend on what the ground is like and how many friends we can tempt over to help dig!
Thanks for the tips. Will post pics as I remember.
