Contractors Site (Bath)

United Kingdom / England / Bath
 mine, historical layer / disappeared object
This is the site used by the contractor as a base during the operation to backfill all the old stone mine workings under Combe Down with a cement slurry pumped into place from the main site.
Foamed concrete has been selected as the solution for the large scale infilling of the old mine works. Over 400,000 cubic metres (523,180 cu yd) of foamed concrete will be placed in the shallow underground mines
It was originally a park and all works are now complete with the site returned to its former state.

Kindly move to category [historic layer] once the google satellite image catches up with reality.
