Conister house, percolation test

Hi Jeremy, hope all's well, we've done the testing from Tuesday onwards, Only did the one test hole and did it have the size of the previous testing, 300 \mathrm{~mm} \times 1 \mathrm{~m} \times 1 \mathrm{~m},
The previous holes were 600 mm wide \times 1 \mathrm{~m} deep \times 1 \mathrm{~m} long
So if we need more readings I could use them as we only filled them half way up our gauge due to lack of water capacity, which in affect is the same volume of water as new tests,
Thanks,
Steve
