Victoria Square is quite a watery area, as much of the ground soil is made up of a clay soil (a common feature in and around Penarth. Because of the water retaining property this creates, it gave us an opportunity to add a water feature to The Square that not only took advantage of this, but will allow us to grow plants that wouldn't thrive so well without its support. It also has a big advantage over a feature like a pond, in being safer and less prone to the issues of maintaining one.
