Small pond project

[andrewcollier]

I would really apreciate any thoughts anybody has on a small pond I am shortly to start work on in my back yard.

The size is 6ft long 3ft at it's widest. The stone retaining wall is 7 inches high.

My wife has always wanted a fountain, so I have found one that I can fit into the wall in the form of a lion's head, and make a pond beneath it. I am using a butyl type liner to fit inside the existing stones. I am assuming I need to dismantle the front retaining wall and cut the inside of the stones out leaving a profile like a sideways "L".

Should I construct a concrete edge for the liner to sit on, with the stones on top of that?

Thanks

Andrew
