I'm a complete novice, so I'm looking for some help

I saw a nice idea for the patio with a rigid liner surrounded by earth/sand,
then sleepers built round it.

However, I wanted our small rigid pond for somewhere else (maybe
semi-raised, as I can't dig much due to illness).

Could the raised sleeper idea be done with flexible liner ?
I'm talking about 4' 6'' x 3'

TIA

My pond is a partially raised, rigid type except with flexible liner. Take a
look at it on the following link. It was easy to construct. My wife and I
completed it in about two days. It might be a little different from what you
are envisioning, but maybe it will give you some ideas.

I hope this helps give you some ideas. Just remember, if you live in an area
that freezes in the winter, the pond should be deep enough that it won't freeze
solid. You can also buy a de-icer at any garden pond store, if needed.
