Ponds now encircle the house, I'm headed for a moat effect to this property, the house may not be much in the way of a castle, but the final touch just might be a drawbridge... 'Far from the madding crowd' you might call it...

As I nipper I roamed what little was left of aquatic habitats in the sprawling industrial Midlands of England, ponds, aquariums and vivariums were a magical glimpse into another world...
