David and Victoria Beckham Credit: Getty I wasn t the only one to spend 2020 worrying about newts. Like many, the forced confinement of the past year focused me in on my own patch, made me pay attention to things that had previously passed me by. One of the things I noticed was that the area at the end of my garden that had once been a pond was now a weed-grown swamp, devoid of life. Wildlife ponds are having a moment. Ed Sheeran has had a two-year battle with irate Suffolk neighbours over a vast pond he built to encourage dragonflies, newts and toads (he was accused of wanting to use it as a swimming pool).

The building was put up with a floor level 600 millimetres above ground level to avoid flooding, but we were not allowed to replace the ancient septic tank with a modern bio-digester as this might add phosphates to the river. RELATED NEWS: We have also planted 1,500 trees and hedging plants to help with water absorption. I think it is pretty well established that dredging and straightening rivers only moves your flooding problems downriver onto others, and the correct action is to increase the meanders of the river and plant more trees on the banks to absorb run-off. ....
