Hi

 This may not be of any use to you at all, but we are in East Norfolk and hubby has just made 2 great arks out of outdoor ply & a few bits of 3 x 2...  Not curved but in a tall triangle... Works really well.

On a historic post here, someone mentioned that the old fashioned plastic non-bunded oil tanks make good pig arks which is a brilliant idea - the non-bunded ones are not allowed now so you should be able to pick up one somewhere.  We have one here but we're too far away (scottish borders).

My hubby makes them too, we're in Norfolk/Suffolk border near Brandon so pm me if you're interested.
