A friend has an old indoor swimming pool which he got converted

the pool enabling him to use the old pool below as a good storage
area. This worked a treat until the winter rains came and it
transpired that the water table is very high and the pool was not
tanked on the outside. Net result water is seeping into the
storage
area and stinks!!

just re-read this - by "stinks" what do you mean? sewage? or mouldy
"cellar" smell?

It is a stagnant water stench ......

You can hire sections of conveyor belt intended for moving spoil quite
cheaply, and in urban situations people seem desperate to give away
rubble to avoid skip fees, so it should be perfectly possible to
rubble fill it relatively easily and cheaply despite the distance.
Then a proper concrete floor can be installed delivering the concrete
by the same conveyor.

google "miniveyor"
- not cheap to buy or hire IIRC but once you have amassed sufficient
****e to fill the hole, undoubtedly a good way of moving it quickly
and easily - you just shovel it on at one end and eventually it falls
off the other end - hopefully exactly where you want it, spread around
and compact, repeat as necess.
