Removing self-set alder trees outside Devizes

In March we used our 360° digger to remove self-set alder trees on a lake outside Devizes. Part of an ongoing project with plenty to undertake, work is carried out in small lots to allow the natural balance of the water and habitat to remain

This was part of an ongoing project with plenty to undertake: thus work is carried out in small lots to allow the natural balance of the water and habitat to remain undisturbed. We have submitted an application to the Environment Agency or an extraction licence to take water to fill the lake which has been approved; this will help raise water quality over the summer.

Unimog

We’re very excited with our new-to-us additional  Unimog.  We purchased it from Belgium,  brought it back in October,  had it re-sprayed and fully serviced with new brakes and air valves and she’s now ready for work with a wood chipper on the back with a 1.5 ton capacity.  We’ll certainly be able to access any tricky off-road areas you have…

And do you know the origin of this odd name?  The Unimog is a range of multi-purpose auto four wheel drive medium trucks produced by Mercedes-Benz. The word is an acronym for the German “Universal Motor-Gerät”, Gerät being the German for device/machine/instrument/apparatus.  There, you needed to know that!
