An expert team of divers has been under the water at Lincoln’s Glory Hole to help with the latest phase of the Council’s investigation into the site.
With the primary investigation above the river by council officers and engineers now complete, the next stage in the ongoing data-gathering means finding out exactly what’s happened below the waterline.
The dive team has carried our out an underwater fingertip assessment of the underpinning of the walkway, and data gathered from what they discovered will become part of the overall investigation detail into why and how the aged footpath has degraded.
Once all the information has been grouped together, Lincolnshire County Council’s specialist engineering team will assess what’s been discovered and then work on the live plan about what can next be done at the historic location.
