Lets get ready to RUBBLE!

A flat site!
As we had two young and fit lads with us this week they naturally were given the task to hit what we call (0002), or 'the rubble'. As a result we have vanquished the core of it and are looking to have a flat site for the first time.
Thanks to Chris & Charlie!
It is becoming clear that there are more layers under this one and the floor may be quite some depth yet. But the walls are beginning to look good and the evidence suggest, so far, that we have a possible workshop, with plenty of slag and a glass substance adhering to some bricks. Hopefully we may find a hearth to substantiate this theory soon. 

Look out for a video of the site on the next post. Dorset Diggers in action!
