Jonno, what trailer is that?, any more pics? as looking for one to go behind alpine.

It's made by/for Lennartfors Iron Horse machines.  It doesn't take a standard trailer hitch, so is likely not suitable for your needs.  It is supposed to self-unload, by basically disconnecting the rear cross member and then letting it all slide back as you pull away.  Problem is the sodding thing is so heavy that undoing the pins is nigh-on impossible under load.  Saving pennies for a proper trailer/crane combo, but at the moment I'm happy enough with how easy it is to move around the limited space I have while thinning.

Let me know if you want dimensions for this one, and I'll draw something up mate

Thanks. I want to keep mine to an overall width of 4ft, same as the alpine so if tractor goes trailer will follow, It will be manual loading as only for my own use. 2t mini digger can do bigger bits.
