Pond De-silting
Using our specialist long reach machine, we were able to de-silt the ponds and re-shape them.
High Heavens Waste Complex
Following a fire within the bulky waste bay in 2019, it was recognised that the existing facilities at the site were inadequate. With the assistance of Countrystyle, Buckinghamshire Council required a standalone storage facility to meet EA guidance they have set out.
Agricultural Civils – Stanford Bridge Farm
The fire at Stanford Bridge Farm in November 2019 saw the destruction of three cattle buildings. FGS Pilcher undertook construction work to rebuild the barns to ensure the safe housing of the cattle over winter.
Agricultural Civils – S E Lane
FGS Pilcher have undertaken several recent projects for SE Lane and Partners. This included modernising the farm facilities of the dairy herd.
Kentish Stour Countryside
We were tasked to work with Natural England at the Stodmarsh Nature reserve, an internationally important mixture of reed beds, fens, ditches, wet grassland and open water.
Internal Drainage Board
We have been undertaking regular work for the Romney Marsh Area Internal Drainage Board (RMAIDB). Our specialist long reach excavator, with weed cutting bucket, enabled us to reach even the deepest of drainage channels with ease.
Romney Marsh – Kent Wildlife Trust
Last year we undertook some ditching work using grant money from The Fifth Continent scheme in partnership with the Kent Wildlife Trust. The Fifth Continent Landscape Partnership Scheme seeks to deliver a number of exciting projects based around three key themes to Restore, Rediscover and Reclaim Romney Marsh.
Sissinghurst Castle Gardens
Earlier this year we worked on a project with South East Rivers Trust in partnership with the National Trust. The project involved the restoration of a floodplain meadow.
Barton Business Park
During Spring 2019 the groundworks and civils team worked on a building project, creating industrial units at Barton Business Park, Canterbury.
Farm Building Conversion
One of our latest Civils projects. We worked with Michael and Peter Sargent at S E Lane, Biddenden to convert an existing farm building into a milking parlour and cubicle building. The project, which also involved installing a flushing water system, is now completed and being used by its new residents!
