This is the proposed layout for the new pond, it will be circa 3500 -4500 gals with the block built filters.
The gazebo will be taken down and a new one built on the new decking area.
I will update photo's with the progress,
Dave.

Hi,
The next installment, retaining wall nearly finished. Will start on the gazebo and decking base next. Progress is very slow , but this needs to be done before starting on the filters and pond!
