26th January 2016: with Tom Chapman, Nick Hawkes, Duncan Price and Paul Brock.
Good to see Brocker’s digging somewhere other than Home Close. Decided not to apply any rock engineering technology this evening and to concentrate on spoil removal instead. I had made-up a couple of skips yesterday afternoon ready for the clearing task. While TC and PB went for a quick tour around the rest of us headed down to the dig and set about getting a hauling system into place. There is only limited space available to stack spoil in so DP spent some time sorting this out while Nick and myself got the skip into action and started clearing the debris from the sloping passage floor. When TC and PB joined us the clearance progressed well and most of the loose stuff was tidied away, still a bit left for the next session to be cleared while I engineer the next constriction. A fine evenings work!
