Falmer update?

[The Grockle]

Much happening at the Falmer site today??

Any builders there?

The ancient Roman underfloor heaters that the archeologists missed need to be fired up first before being able to dig through the frosty pitch.

I hear building work has been held up by a small flood, otherwise it is going well:

There was some diggers there on a big mound of soil but couldn't see if they were doing much as i zoomed past at 70mph

I drove past today, into the uni car park and back round again for a quick look as I was driving home from work. Lots and lots of mud, and alot of movement. There were 5 or 6 diggers in operation with a couple of dumper trucks. Lots of men in high vis jackets and hard hats also seen on site. No photos as i had no camera. But will take some more snaps next time im in the area. All in all, work is being done, but nothing really "groundbreaking" as of yet to be seen.

All mud and machinery.

Well, they are only building a sodding road at the moment.

Many thanks for the update.

What's the postcode of the site? Or address (roughly)? Want to look it up on Google Maps to see it's relative location.

Were you looking for a newly dug foundation about to be filled with concrete?

After all the delays set by LDC i would have expected work to be 24/7 to make some time up.
