Lakes & Large Ponds
| Habitually, we describe all small ponds, large ponds and lakes as "ponds" except in these pages devoted to lakes and large ponds. |
Because the author of this page (the founder of NPS) spent a large part of his childhood messing about in and on a lake (lough) of 10,500 hectares, we describe more or less every body of water we come across (or build) in the south of England as a "pond" not a lake.
| Lake construction | Lake design |
| Lake repair | Lake maintenance |
| Lake planting | Lake consultancy |
Creating a body of water that is large enough to be called a lake (by others) does not demand a construction methodology that differs substantially from that used in building what we describe as a "large pond". More muscular perhaps, and offering a larger canvass for reflections and so on but, in essence, the same principles apply.
Our lake design and lake consultancy services are available to inform part or all of any lake or large pond project both locally and nationwide.
Our construction teams undertake large pond and lake construction in Surrey, Sussex and Hampshire (unless we are tempted further afield by a particularly interesting or challenging project).
