Sand for stream/ditch bed

aalleexx

Hello ,
I have a rainwater ditch at the end of my garden which has a steady stream of water running down it constantly .  It is slowly eroding away the bed of the ditch which is  undermine my erosion defence wall . what I would like to do is put some sand on the ditch bed just to raise it up by about 18 inches . I want to put the correct sand down , as in the correct sand which you are allowed to use for this . could someone point be to the location where I can find out exactly what sand I can use for this .Thank you

I think you'd do better asking the mods to move this thread over to the Greenfingered board where you can get advice from Woolsery, Liberty Lily, Farway, in my wellies, twopenny, fatbelly and other gardening experts. See you over there, goldfinches.
