Plant Hire and Equipment for Archaeology.
Henson Plant and Construction Equipment Hire have over 30 years’ experience in plant and equipment hire and hundreds of hours in helping with archaeological digs. Whether we’re excavating trenches or box-grids, we always take care of the ground we are working on, we know how important this is for archaeologists and their work.
We understand that you will need to know sites archaeological potential, so using our machinery we can help with test pitting. Once you are happy with your dig site, Henson will be on hand to remove material from above the archaeological layers, such as concrete foundations from demolished buildings. We can remove individual layers and prepare flat surfaces ready for you to start your dig!
Do you need a deeper dig?
Archaeologists have a tough job when trying to complete a deeper dig than the average 30cm. It can be hard going depending on the type and structure of the soil. At Henson Plant Equipment Hire we have supported many archeology and local projects and understand the needs of archaeologists and the often, time sensitive and budget sensitive dig projects they need to fulfil.
Let us help lighten the load and get in touch for help with your dig site!
