Stream Garden by Archie Skinner

Water gardens never go out of favour, but many people now want something a little different - not a formal pond with paved edges, but a natural-looking water garden which blends into the landscape or creates an atmosphere of informality, attracting wildlife and providing a feeling of countryside relaxation. This book is both practical and inspirational. Choosing a site, planning, construction and planting are all covered in detail. Ponds, streams and waterfalls are all included and case histories are documented to show what can be achieved even in a flat and uninspiring plot.

David Arscott is a former journalist who now works as a producer and broadcaster for BBC Radio. He is the author of more than 40 books about the county. He resides in Lewes and heads the Sussex Book Club and the Society of Sussex Writers.
