We have been hard at work in London at the Emirates football stadium with the City Boy Spierings mobile crane!

Another complex job getting the 450t back together and on luffer ready for a weekends lifting. A lot of hard work to get this built in such a confined area, up a slope and over a handrail as well a 80t gross weight limit to work with. A Great job […]

The windmill at Upminster was built in 1803 and was in production for 132 years. During its working life it saw many repairs, but over the last 80 years it has only received limited maintenance, so that now much of the structure is fragile, especially the cap. Over the next […]
