A dumper truck arrives early in the morning and delivers several loads of road planings which are smoothed over by a road roller. The first car park is now beginning to take shape and will greatly increase the accessibility of heavy machinery near to the monument. On the other side of the Bar hardcore is emptied into the dug out area.
A meeting is called with the Managing Director of Cathedral Works, Bernard Burns, site manager, Steve Cassidy, Freeland Rees Roberts Architects, the Corporation of London, and construction engineers to discuss the progress so far and to make sure everything runs to schedule. Media intrigue develops surrounding the history of this ancient monument and the BBC visit the site and interview architect Henry Freeland, partner of Freeland Rees Roberts Architects, and the Corporation of London’s architect, Andrew Paterson.
