CLIENT CASE 1
WEST KILBRIDE WAR MEMORIAL

In May 2005, we were instructed by North Ayrshire Council to try and unearth 2 “time capsules” which were believed to be buried since World War 1. This work involved careful excavation by small hand held tools straight down and underneath the granite of the memorial, so the structure would not be damaged in any way.

Hampered by very wet weather conditions and for fear of jeapordising the integrity of the structure and its foundations by further excavation, the project had to be abandoned. Holes were backfilled and slabs re-laid, and everyone went home wet and disappointed.
