Water Gardens

Water Under the Bridge

In the Moosey garden water is taken for granted - the pond and the irrigation race are functional, though I've enjoyed experimenting with their waterside plantings. There's indescribable magic in the sound of running water, evoking a most peaceful ambience.

Serious water features and designs are a definite art form, and there are many books and magazines devoted to these. And it's a well known fact that people with ponds are friendly folk, and love meeting other people with ponds.
