What an absolutely stunning location. I'm planning on putting a pond in my garden this autumn, sadly wont be as majestic as this but one can still dream!
Looks fantastic, well worth all the hard work and the soggy socks 🦔🪵
Haha! Yes, and I *may* have learned my lesson, waders always in the truck now! Thanks for the support Mark, I appreciate it. Best wishes, Joel
Absolutely stunning..you guys never fail deliver a perfect dream for all to watch...Ty for sharing 🏡🎉
Thank you - really appreciate this. Sorry for the delay in responding but with circa 200 videos on the channel now it's quite a feat keeping up with everyone - but positive and encouraging comments like yours really do make the effort worthwhile. Lots to come from this site with further projects and I'm filming every one. Best wishes, Joel
Brilliant work joel thanks so much for sharing 🐸💚🐸
Oh to own a natural stream in my garden! The work down looks great as usual Joel 💪🏻
There's many a garden I visit and work in that I wish was mine, but this natural stream.... sigh. Thanks so much for your continued support, it really does make a difference :)
How lovely 🥰 If you made a long video of that waterfall at the end I could watch that all day! Imagine hours of the sounds of water and birds in the background ☺️😌
Hi Jessica, so sorry for the delay in acknowledging you, just trying to catch up with all the comments across the channel now. I must admit it was difficult to leave that site and the tranquility - when I'm back there soon I'll make a longer video of it for you, it's a great idea re having it on a loop for relaxation :) Very best wishes, Joel
😮 so beautiful 😻 ☺️ the stream & pond.
Thanks Janie - you can imagine how many times I wish other people's gardens were my own! ;) Best wishes, Joel
stunning Joel
Absolutely brilliant. Will definitely be L/S . More please 😊

A beautiful transformation!
Great work and result Joel !
You have some fantastic projects Joel, this is something special. You certainly bought back the beauty of this idillic wetland. Brilliant work. Looking forward to the next video. Oh pack your waders next time 😂
They're permanently in the truck now... ha! Yes, some wonderful projects completed again this year and so many lined up for next year already, which means more and more videos of course! Hope you and yours are doing well, just trying to keep up with the comments when I can. Take good care Tracey, best wishes - Joel
It's so satisfying when the water really starts flowing at 5:49! Great video
It really is :) Thanks so much for the support, it's appreciated. Best wishes, Joel
What an amazing place! Absolutely beautiful!
It really is, isn't it? I long for a garden like this, but I think we all do. The client is fantastic to work for and ensures this beautiful place is an absolute haven for nature, always looking for ways to improve and expand. I'll be back there again soon and film the next project - hope you are keeping well, best wishes - Joel
Love it! I would love to have a water feature like this in my yard.
Me too Joanne, me too! I'd never get any work done though :) Hope you're doing well, best wishes - Joel
I love your pond videos and that one is awesome!
Thank you Charlotte, so much. Hope you're doing ok, apologies that I've not been able to keep up with all the comments of late, but I'm working my way through them slowly! :) Best wishes, as always - Joel
Hi Joel. That's ok. You are a busy guy and I understand. I'm doing ok. Thanks. Fall is here so the garden is getting ready for winter. I took a ton of plants inside to overwinter. I don't want all my flowers dying so at least I can save some till next year. Take care and don't work too hard🤗@@WildYourGardenWithJoelAshton
Hey Joel! Wow! What an amazing garden, think that would be all my dreams come true. It's so lovely to have water in a garden, no matter how much. Best wishes.
Mine too! A wonderful client to work for, and an amazing garden that I can only dream of having, but this client strives to make the whole area perfect for wildlife. Sorry for the delay in responses, just catching up with everyone again. Very best wishes, Joel
What a fantastic transformation. And what a stunning spot.
Thank you Marie - so sorry for the delay in acknowledging you, trying to get projects finished whilst making the most of the remaining light in the evenings before winter sets in, but I really appreciate this, thank you. Best wishes - Joel
Great job Joel
Thanks Malcolm, hopefully I'll be filming yours real soon! Very best wishes, and sorry for the delay in acknowledging you, so many comments across the channel to respond to, but I'm getting there :) Best wishes, as always - Joel

Well done for sure 💚💚
Wow, that is really peaceful and tranquil, beautiful. Very nice. I wish that was my huge garden! Can you give advice on dealing with/controlling blanket weed in small bucket ponds...remove it all/partly/none etc....?
.a cool video keep up the great content.. Thank you…
Thanks so much Jorg, I really appreciate the encouragement and support, it really does make a difference. Best wishes, Joel
@@WildYourGardenWithJoelAshton Thank you very mutch... have a nice day.... see you….
thank you for sharing your expertise, i have something very similar, and keeping the natural gravity flow of water can be difficulit at times due to vegatation . This helps alot. wondering sometimes if removing duckweed and with frogs hoping around if doing right thing. But maintance nessceary to keep natural pond flowing. 😗
Very interesting to see that watercourse improve with a little help.
I have a question regarding the duckweed, did it become a blanket like that specifically because of the poor water flow, or is it related to nutrient levels in the water also.👍
Hi there Paul, sorry for the delay, just catching up with everyone. Duckweed is usually transferred by birds' feet and it does like a relatively high nitrate content to keep going, but once it's in, it's in! I like to see some duckweed in a pond, tadpoles really enjoy it, along with blanket weed of course in the Spring but it's worth keeping on top of :) Fish in ponds will take care of duck weed, but as we know they'll also "take care" of other pond life. Hope you and yours are well, best wishes - Joel
great transformation Joel and what a beautiful setting, on the subject of duck weed, I have a barrel pound that suddenly seems over run with it, are there any tips to get rid of it, or is it just a case of having to fish it out bit by bit?
Hi there Stewart - so sorry for the delay, just trying to catch up with everyone while on a tea-break as I'm on another large project at the moment - but yes, duck weed is best fished out when you can, but do remember that tadpoles absolutely love this as a food source in Spring so do leave some :) Hope this helps, and thanks for the support, it's appreciated - Joel
What a great garden for wildlife ❤. One question: I’ve always thought duckweed was good for ponds as it helps to stop the suns rays getting in and making algae and blanket weed. Is it just that this pond has too much?
Hi there Madeleine, apologies for the delay in acknowledging everyone, just trying to catch up now. Duckweed does help to shade a pool and keep it cool, but it can choke out other plants and sometimes prevent them from receiving light and compete with other pond plants for nutrients. I think a small amount actually looks nice in a pond, but as you say this one had just way too much. Hope you and yours are well - best wishes, Joel
🥰
Clay pipe was proberbly overflow pipe incase of flooding and I think the clear out and clean was the real issue.
Mayby im dumb, but i dont get what happened? Wouldnt the volume of water still be the same so any blockages would just act like a dam raising levels and increasing pressure? Hence pushing any blockages out of th way?
Ohhh no you need those fishing waders
Haha! Absolutely :)
An idyllic scene restored. I think you were too busy, but did you find any wildlife in or around there?
They should fish in the pond you could even put trout in it .
idyllic.
Certainly is :)
