Water feature between brick piers

We have a brick wall interspersed with gaps (filled with timber fencing between the piers).

The gap between the piers is approximately 6ft x 6ft and 1ft deep.

We're thinking of putting a water feature between a set of piers and we are looking for ideas.

Need to use the 1ft depth by putting a resilient (e.g. some sort of plastic fencing mounted in galvanised steel channels) to rear (as it borders a neighbouring property with no access for maintenance), then, maybe, facing with some sort of relatively easy brick/slate/steel/timber wall to front, using gap to conceal piping and anything else for the water feature.

Happy if brick facing wall with blade, Just looking for ideas.

Electrical supply readily available but no water supply.

Ideas welcome.

    You can buy that type of water feature as a complete standalone unit. They can be free-standing so I assume can be moved for maintenance. Most/all water feature will have a reservoir and the water recirculates. You will need to top it up occasionally due to evaporation but they don’t run off a water supply.

    Just google blade water feature and lots of suppliers will pop up.

    Look at BBC Garden Rescue series 5:5 Ellesmere Port from 28 mins. Couldn't grasp what she was going to do at first but I thought it came out really well.
