Watch in HD. Series of videos showing the construction of a large wildlife pond at a school in Gosforth, Newcastle (North East England).

The pond will have beach area, dipping platform and hibernaculum and will be planted with native plants.
This video shows how we install the dry stone wall around the inside of the pond. By building a dry stone wall, habitat is created for invertebrates which will consume organic waste in the pond - acting like a natural filter.
Liner is also hidden and protected by the wall. Large edging stones will be added to the top of the wall to provide stable access to the pond.
The gaps behind the wall also provide hiding places for amphibians.
The next video in the series shows the installation of the edging stone around the pond perimeter and the creation of the beach.
