Can anyone please tell me of a website that sells Moulded ponds , we want to make a wildlife pond.  Thank you.Rosebud. ;D

Google  'pond equipment and add your nearest big city   and you should come up with company in your area.

or you could have a look on your local freecycle and get it for free...http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Freecycle/

Had you considered using a liner rather than a moulded shape?
If you have rocky ground it is easier.

Most preformed ponds dont have the slope that is needed for a really good wildlife pond, a liner is the way to go :)

This may help;  ;)

Hi Rosebud,

We went here at the weekend and were amazed at their selection and help, but I am not sure there is one anywhere near you and they don't do mail order on their pre-formed ponds.  There is lots of info on the website though which you may find useful.

This looks as though it has lots of info too:

A wildlife pond is one of the things I want to plan next so I will be interested to see how you get on.

Hi Rosebud

I bought one - years and years ago - and the hassle of digging out the correct shape with the shelves etc and then getting the wretched thing to sit where it should was a nightmare.  You are way better off with a butyl liner.  Much easier and quicker too!

 Thank you all for your help i think we shall go for a liner after all.
Tullipa, the Beautifull Britain website is great thank you. :D :D
