Is it deep enough yet Dad?

New build going up on the Sunday Market road. I would estimate that the foundation block (in black) is at least 20 ft deep or high depending on where you are standing.  ;D

We saw this getting dug from the dolmus earlier this month we could not believe how deep they were digging   :)

Presumably they have gone to the suitably bearing soil.

Lets hope so.  :)

I think that "foundation block" is actually a cellar.
The concrete for the basement was being poured when I was there.
