Day 1 - Tuesday 8 May - Removing the turf
The very first cut. The small red flags mark the position of the sprinklers.
Middle of the pitch.
Several stretches now removed.
Dumper truck ready and waiting.
Early days yet.
Close up of the layer below the turf.. Still the odd spikes of grass showing.
One of the many trailer loads of ground-up turf.
Tipping the ground-up turf in the west car park.
Still more to come.
The turf cutter removed a track of turf approximately 4 metres wide on each pass. Each pass created a trailer load and a dumper truck bucket full of turf which was piled up in the west car park by the gates. The combination of vehicles moved at a slow walking pace.
