We hacked back the rank vegetation which covered the pond on Wednesday and discovered just how much it had dropped - I reckon about 18"! So I topped it up, which is not ideal but really needed to be done. It has dropped 4" since then, which does not bode well. But we can now enjoy the wildlife in the pond again! Frogs toads and dozens of newts!

Creating the meadow
- This is a record of the first part of the project, between March and September 2005 when we did the groundwork for the meadow. Most of the relevant details about the process are included in the comments for each photo so I haven't repeated it elsewhere.
