Wednesday morning. Early start
to open up the site.
|
|
|
|
|
|
A surprise! CCT John
had been beavering away and had
exposed more of the Junction bridge
and aqueduct walls. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
We
just need to join up the two sides
and we're back in business. |
|
|
|
|
|
The
first team from Intel arrive and get
stuck in. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
With the debris removed the
construction of the lock is
revealed.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
After lunch and team two get
ready for work after an introductory
talk from Ray. |
|
|
|
|
|
We are considering adopting this
design as our standard welly. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
That root took a bit of digging
out.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Thursday and the Arval troops
arrive. |
Half the gang continue on
the lock. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The others start clearing the
Basin walls. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Not to be outdone, our regulars
John and Vic worked in the
opposite corner levelling the
soil and clearing the weeds from
the stone work. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The
wheelbarrow has many uses. |
|
|
|
|
|
Tree roots provide endless
hours of "fun".
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
There was a sluice here that
allowed the Basin to be
emptied.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
End of the day, and Casper is
not too pleased that we've
cleared away some of his hunting
grounds.
