Over the past week or so we have been diligently filling the tyres with 10mm chippings, the majority of the filling happened during two days on site with large groups of students working in teams to shovel and compact the stones. I required the assistance of another college staff member (Mike Prosser) to supervise these larger groups. we are now almost ready for the straw walls to go up.
You can also see in the background of this picture that we now have a site office and canteen so that we can establish the required welfare facilities on site. Untill now we have been sharing the occombe farm buildings to satisfy the CDM regulations. We can now be self sufficient on site without interfering with farm operations.
