The collapsed roof was removed
and the Upright Shaft salvaged. Next to go was the debris on
the floor, which
consisted of a mixture of old tyres; rotting timber; polythene bags, and earth.
This was all removed down to the level of the top of the sleeper walls; two
walls that divide the
base and originally supported the floor joists. Finally
the elder tree was dug out; this was about
twenty feet high, but fortunately the
roots were fairly shallow.
