Hi every one,
I'm building a pond, having dug a large hole 12 x 8 x 4 approx by spade ( only took 2 years or so!!! ) Time for construction methods.
Looking at a concrete base and blockwork and brick outer. feel that it would cost too much.
What would be your views on using concrete posts and panels as a wall ( like a fence ) but with a 6 - 8in back fill with concrete? Plus base.
Would that hold the water pressure of 11,000 ltr? There is so much rubble, glass, slate, sharp metal etc that a liner in the hole would be of no use!
I welcome your comments and experience.
Very best wishes
