Concrete has been poured, this isn't "sitting in water" at any point.

Reply to Remains of Roman aristocrat unearthed in ‘extraordinary’ cemetery near Leeds by MeatballDom
I'm pretty close to Garforth, I'd love to know where abouts it was to try and go have a nosey.
>Although the exact location remains a secret, the excavation was in part prompted by a discovery nearby of late Roman stone buildings and a small number of Anglo-Saxon-style structures.
They (the council) recently finished a large project to build a trunk road connecting north Leeds with the A1 motorway, I'm almost certain this was what caused the initial discovery.

Reply to Basement wall framing, slight gaps due to crowning of studs. Please advise on next steps if any are needed. by Warsaw14
Don't worry about it at all, wood is a natural product and variation WILL happen, even after you've fixed plasterboard to it it will continue to expand and contract for many years...
TLDR: plasterboard it, it's fine.

Don't do this, crazy idea honestly.
What you SHOULD do (and my professional recommendation) would be;
replace the weather stripping, it clearly saw it's best days when the twin towers were still standing.
with the door closed, pin some fresh 2x1 to the existing jambs to build them out more, best to do this part with the door closed so you can get a nice tight seal.
enjoy a far less draughty door.
