Facelift for monastery
Equipment Hire company Facelift’s Hickstead team recently assisted in a task of the highest order, as their powered access equipment was used to carry out work at the Carthusian Monastery of St Hugh’s Charterhouse in the Weald of Sussex.
The Bronto 50 XDT-J – a super light truck mounted access platform – was used to carry out high level maintenance work at the monastery, one of the largest of its kind in Europe.
In the past, maintenance work has been hampered by the layout of the monastery, which is comprised of many small courtyards and over one kilometre of cloisters, along with a spire on the main church that is over 60 metres high.
The Bronto 50 XDTJ’s extended reach enabled access to even the most secluded parts of the monastery.
