Setting up the excavation

We're almost done with the set-up of the excavation in Kentish Town School, which will start on Monday. The topsoil (and underlying rubber matting) is off, the tools are there and all the activities are planned.

We've had to move a compost bin that was attracting wasps and will find something to ward off the cats or foxes that may come in and leave a present in the trench overnight.

Tomorrow we'll be putting up a fence and surveying in the temporary benchmark. Look out for some photos of our finds!
