Grand. At last. Now if people would just stop walking all over it, perhaps it could try and forget we were ever there...

Aye Pilgrim. There's yet another PS to this whole sorry saga here - http://arts.guardian.co.uk/art/news/story/0,,2279497,00.html

Mave seems to have got it slightly wrong (to say the least) in her last paragraph, "Nothing has been left behind except a cable to monitor movement..." Nothing of course other than thousands of plastic bags and any Atkinson/BBC tunnel arches which were deemed too dangerous to remove. At least there's no 21st century time capsule in there (one of English Heritage's less inspired/informed ideas and supported by some who should have known better). The 1968 concrete lintel and metal door have also thankfully been removed.
