Abstract: |
Bulk ground reduction revealed a sequence of redeposited gravel to be overlain by modern made ground. The redeposited gravel is most likely to represent material used to backfill the Albion Docks. Natural, alluvial deposits of gravel, clay and peat that were recorded in previous monitoring exercises in the area were not observed during these works as the ground reduction did not extend deep enough to have an impact upon them. It is likely that these exist at a height of ca. 0m OD and below. The base of the excavation was at a height of between 1.91m OD and 2.30m OD. |
