Finally after several delays due to the weather, archaeological finds and design changes the Groundworks for the new building have started. The entire site of 4 acres has undergone a Soil Stabilisation process, producing a hard crust on which the final finish will be laid.

At the moment the groundworkers are digging 115 foundation pits that will support the steel structure as well at the footings for the external walls.

This work is due to be completed by Wednesday 21st November, which is perfect timing for the steel work which arrives on Monday 26th November? Fingers crossed.
