The main task today was removing the excess soil from between the foundation trenches, to make room for the compacted stone, underfloor insulation and floor slab concrete to be added later. This soil had been intentionally left in place before.

A JCB telehandler was delivered to be used for unloading delivery vehicles and moving materials around the site.

There was also a delivery of engineering bricks and ready-mixed mortar for the walls below DPC, to be supplemented by a lorry load of concrete blocks expected tomorrow.
