Apologies if this is in the wrong section. I am new to the Site. I am also pretty ignorant about most things so plz be patient
I have a small holding in NI - grazing own horses. Land has become very wet, like water logged I also realise we had a very wet winter and summer to date. Drainage was done about 12 years ago when I bought this hole. I am considering mole drainage anyone any helpful suggestions which would be received appreciatively The likely costs is it efficacious and cost effective or can I do do something cheaper and more effective? I am an old lady hence the request for advice. Thank you

Hi Milkloss, I had lots of land drains stones and some plastic pipe I think that's what the 2 guys done. I had 9" concrete porus pipes in the yard the river agency man advised those, but those are fine There's moss too due to the horses. I had it limed last year and about 2 years ago had it slurried.
