Description

Monitoring of footings for an extension at the rear of No 6 St Mary's Square, Bury St Edmunds. A series of visits was made after sccas was alerted to the start of work by the discovery of a well by the contractors, during the grubbing out of the footings of the previous extension. By the time of the first monitoring visit, the former extension had been completely removed and the ground over the development area had been reduced. 5 of the six pad foundations were excavated 1mx1.4m and up to 1.6m below the former ground surface (S1).
