June has been a busy month for us at Slough Fort, we have now mixed 45 tons of concrete and finished laying the missing concrete to the righthand side of the western gun position road. Once we put bitumen the expansion gaps it will be complete. All the gully stones have now been cast for the other side of the road, 5 in place and 10 more to set in position.
We have also been working hard on grant applications and now have 4 more windows and 3 doors on order, plus funding to re coat the main fort roof with a solar reflective layer over the bitumen which needs to be done every 5 years to remain waterproof.
We have also finally submitted our HLF grant application and sit back until later in the year with our fingers crossed for a positive outcome.
