History / About Us.

A family run firm for 30 years with local knowledge in agriculture and construction.

The agricultural contracting business started operating from south Stainmore in 1970 with a Massey Ferguson 65 tractor and bailer, working for local farmers in the upper eden valley.

Silage making equipment was acquired to keep up with the changes in farming and in 1985 our first self propelled forager was added to the growing fleet.

By 1990 we had 3 self propelled foragers complete with full silage making services which are all available to the present day.

Due to demand in 1975 our first wheeled digger was purchased and the plant hire business has steadily expanded. In 1986 the business relocated to Church Brough where it presently operates from.

To keep up with the growing demand the first tracked digger was acquired in 1988 which was followed by a range of mini diggers.

After the effects of the foot and mouth outbreak in 2001, it was time for diversification with a mobile tracked crusher.

We hope to keep in touch with new trends and the needs of our customers and are open to new ventures.
