1. A method of making a foundation, particularly a foundation for a wind turbine, said method comprising: a) forming a pit, b) providing a cylindrical open-bottomed steel can, c) lowering the can into the pit, d) accurately aligning the steel can, e) concreting the steel can in position in the pit by first introducing concrete into the bottom of the pit to a depth sufficient to form a concrete layer in the open lower end of the can and around the lower end of the can, and subsequently introducing concrete around the can to substantially ground level, and f) back-filling the interior of the can. 2. A method as claimed in claim 1, in which concreting of the can in position in the pit is effected in a first stage and a second stage, the first stage involving the introduction of concrete into the bottom of the pit to a depth sufficient to form a concrete layer in the open lower end of the can and around the lower end of the can, and the second stage involving the subsequent introduction of concrete around the can to substantially ground level. 3. A method as claimed in claim 2, in which the second stage is carried out at least twenty four hours after the first stage to allow time for setting of the concrete introduced in the first stage. 4. A method as claimed in claim 1, in which the open-ended steel can includes a plurality of sections of different wall thickness, with the lowermost section being of the lowest wall thickness and with the upper section of greatest wall thickness. 5. A method as claimed in claim 4, in which the steel can comprises three sections of different wall thickness. 6. A method as claimed in claim 1, in which the pit is formed by excavation, and in which back-filling of the interior of the can is effected using the as-dug excavated material. 7. A method as claimed in claim 6, in which, once the interior of the can has been filled to the required level, a layer of concrete is laid on top of the in-fill material. 8. A method as claimed in claim 1, in which the can is supported, during lowering thereof, from a three-point levelling support frame. 9. A method as claimed in claim 1, in which the fixing means comprises an inwardly extending flange at the upper end of the steel can, which flange is formed with a plurality of angularly spaced apertures to receive fixing bolts for connection of the flange at the upper end of the steel can to a corresponding flange at the base of the wind turbine. 10. A method as claimed in claim 1, in which the upper end of the steel can, when installed, extends above ground level to an extent to facilitate welding of the upper end of the steel can to the base of the wind turbine. 11. A method as claimed in claim 1, in which the steel can has a depth of about 8 meters and an outside diameter of about 3 meters and in which the pit which is formed to receive the steel can is of square configuration with minimum dimensions of about 3.3×3.3 meters square and about 7.85 meters deep and maximum dimensions of about 4×4 meters square and about 8 meters deep. 12. A method of making a foundation, particularly a foundation for a wind turbine, said method comprising: a) forming a pit, b) providing a cylindrical open-bottomed steel can, comprising a plurality of sections of different wall thickness, with the lowermost section being of the lowest wall thickness and with the upper section of greatest wall thickness. c) lowering the can into the pit, d) accurately aligning the steel can, e) concreting the steel can in position in the pit, and f) back-filling the interior of the can.
