Martin produced the detailed drawing this morning and as my plot abuts the measuring points it meant that I could mark out the approximate area fairly quickly.
The plots are being measured from scaffolding poles at my end of the site |
The plot is just over 20 metres deep so I've put markers in every 5 metres to chart my progress.
It's a bit frustrating to still be short of the first marker but this is partly due to a change of technique from grubbing out smallish roots with the right angle fork to deeper trenching with the azada.
This is producing a wider range of finds including limestone,bricks, old bits of metal machinery and rotting timber.
It's been very warm today but I'm now relaxing with a beer.Life is good.
