Gentlemen (and ladies?).
I have begun the epic mission of removing 10 years of overgrowth from the garden and converting it into a functional food production space.
With the desire to use as much space as I can for growth, and the logical need for a water butt... I had a plan.
How feasible would it be to dig a really big hole, put a water but in it, but a simple filter to stop animals/dirt filling it up, and cover with patio + drain cover.
Naturally I couldn't use the bottom tap, so I can plug that up and pump from the top.
Are there any structural/legal/conceptual problems with this idea?
