The Holly and the Bedford.

[Andy R]

Lovely job today in Malvern. Taking down a holly with a crane. Used the Bedford Boughton as access was a nightmare. Comes on a cheap day rate, it can go anywhere and is owned and driven by "Mickey No-Bells"

 

Why crane it down though..? you may ask. why not.

 

To be fair it would have needed zip lining out, and some of the branches from well over halfway up the tree reached the floor, intertwining with everything else on the way which would have made rigging a nightmare.

 

Spot the dust off the yew as some of the lifts were brushing up against it.

 

Last few shots are the view from the property, cracking day.

Good looking job Andy! Must have been fun..

At least you had the crane there to get back up the tree after lunch!

 

What did you do with the logs?? Firewood?

[Andy R]

I'm not sure what is happening with the 6ft's

We were subbing to another firm, they have some lengths of holly still in the yard from nearly 2 yrs ago, this will go alongside that, not sure what they have planned for it though.

Was a good day, and that little bedford is brilliant.
