[QUOTE="suffolksmallholder, post: 2925038, member: 1498"] The best place to dig a pond is where the water lies after a storm. If you are new to your property ask locals what the ground is like and watch what the rain does. Half my rainwater runs into our pond, that I dug, and the other half goes into the ditch system. The old fashioned way was to run a herd of cattle\oxen in the dip you dug for the clay that you would use for the walls of your house having added binding materials like hay/straw & animal hairs. This eventually became a useful water gathering area........ SS [/QUOTE]
