Panther Platform Rentals, one of the fastest growing providers of powered access hire solutions in the UK, helped English Heritage carry out essential repairs to the stables of historic Kenilworth Castle in Warwickshire. The stables house the Castle's new 'interactive' computer display and exhibition, which allow visitors a fascinating insight into the building's history.
Panther provided Bronto T34 truck mount for the repair project that enabled English Heritage to repair the stables' tiled roof and make it watertight so that visitors to the 12th century castle could continue to enjoy the exhibition.
"The stables house a brand new Castle exhibition that would have been at risk of rain damage had the roof not been repaired," said James Marchant of Panther's truck mount division. "It was an awkward job to do and the Bronto T34 proved perfect, offering an excellent reach height of 34m and a 23m horizontal outreach that easily stretched over the top of the building."
"The Bronto T34's five metre flyjib was invaluable in this operation, allowing access to the roof elevation facing the castle's moat to repair the tiles."
Kenilworth Castle was built in the 1100s by Geoffrey de Clinton, Chamberlain to Henry I. It was subsequently added to over the years by a number of English kings and it played host to Elizabeth I when owned by Robert Dudley, Earl of Leicester.
