here are some pictures of what was basically someones back garden ,they sold half of it and i dug it all out for a house to be built in it
we built the retaining walls and the associated groundworks and then backfilled
i also found a free tip just down the road for 200 ton of chalk so i got a good drink for that :thumbs_up:
cheers graham

De La Rue, I have done a good bit of work for these people, including hauling printing press machinery over to Sittard in Holland and also to Switzerland, I think the machines printed Credit Cards,if it was Cash I would have brought them home???
