Also, where can I legally dig a hole in the U.K? My arcane knowledge must be guarded for future generations, if humanity is to ever re-emerge from the terrors that await us all.
How Do I Create A Time Capsule That Can Keep Documents Preserved For 100+ Years?
Imagine living somewhere you need a loicense to dig a hole. God frick you're cucked.
To answer your question. Get some low acid paper, use some thick ass pvc pipe, and before you seal it flood the container with nitrogen. Then use the leftovers to make an exit bag so you won't have to be living in The United Cuckingom anymore.
Just put it in a clear plastic box with some dessicant packets and seal all the gaps by melting the edges together. Books and documents easily stay good for 1000+ years with minimal care if you don't bury it underground though. Go to a museum and look at an old book, stupid frog.

And buried underground?
They rot, get wet and break down, and get eaten by detritovores stupid frog.
What is the best way to protect books from rotting underground?
Read this post:
stupid frog.
Get a Preformed Line Products stainless steel case. Like a 9.5x28.
Then put your books in there in a nice glass ampuole.
Maybe throw some desiccant in there and pressure it to like 7psi.

I just don’t want to be caught by the authorities, though. They would probably examine the contents of the time capsule. The secrecy of this time capsule is important for this centuries-long social experiment to work.
Other Brit here, where the frick do you live that you can't find anywhere with soil? I bet you live in the middle of a city and haven't thought to just go somewhere else for the day.
Literally just go into some woods and bury it without disturbing the surface too much. Nobody will care.
M disc
Stainless steel capsule, threaded and welded.
Also, etched stainless steel books.
Put it in a glass bottle and seal the bottle with a blowtorch. Just make sure you don’t burn your scrolls. Wrap your bottle in cloth, put it into a sturdy box and bury.
microfilm
carve/3d print the text into a sustainable material instead of paper pages
laminating paper can also drastically improve the shelf-life underground. not foolproof, since water could still penetrate from cracks, creases, degradation, etc. but if you pair it with a durable airtight box it could sort you out.
kinda pricey depending on how many sheets you have, but if you think it's important enough to bury for the next century, it's probably important enough to drop a bit of dosh.
also, redundancies might be worth the extra trouble. having a duplicate copy, or several mediums containing it, such as a flash/hard drive or something alongside the papers will increase the likelihood of your efforts surviving the test of time. dunno how they'd hold up to exposure though, even in a box underground
