Mickfield Water Garden Centre
Unfortunately, this business is no longer trading in Mickfield, and we have no connection with it.

We do, however, get a lot of calls from people requiring pond maintenance services and recommendations of aquatic plant retailers and we want to help. Therefore, we can suggest two contacts for pond cleaning, maintenance, and construction:

Stephen Burch Tel: 01728 685447 Mobile: 07980 868136

NCS Pond Cleaning (Nigel Stimpson) Orchard Farm, Rushall Tel: 01379 854035

If you are after aquatic plants then we can recommend Waterside Nursery. The nursery is another small, family-run business that exhibits at the major shows, as we do. Linda has a lovely range of plants and pond products and also does mail order.
