Getting a 20 cubic yard skip into the entrance of Wesley House takes some skill. The Transport department want us to take no more than 7 minutes. We have reduced it to 4 minutes.

The Brokk is a clever remote control machine which Havering Demolition will use to break up the concrete floors of the Rank building. The operator stands safely out of the way of the noise and vibrations. It arrived on Thursday morning and was carefully unloaded, just missing a parked Mercedes nearby. Let’s be honest, it looks like it would be great fun to play with but it has a serious purpose and by the end of Thursday it had already punched a hole in the roof of the entrance.

The Wesley House site in Jesus Lane has been emptied for a year while we redevelop the Eastern part to create a new postgraduate college with a focus on International students. We have decanted to 19a Jesus Lane which is just next door.
