The pond will have beach area, dipping platform and hibernaculum and will be planted with native plants.
This video shows how I prepared the hole for the liner by removing sharp objects and large stones and shaping the shelves. Since the ground is very rocky and full of trash, laying a liner is more difficult than with a good soil base and therefore more care is needed before the liner can be laid.
The next video in the series shows the installation of underlay, sand and pond liner.
