The new pipe is embedded in concrete, as it has been all along its path, but here in the garden the concrete had to be shifted from the readymix lorry to the point of use by using a powerbarrow, here being lifted out of the trench, its work complete.

The men dug out quite a bit of stone rubble in this section of the trench, quite possibly remains of the old cottages known as "Fleas Alley" that pre-dated St Clements Terrace (built 1904), shown at centre right in this section of the 1842 Tithe Map. (Wesley Place is the long building on the left.)
