Specialist Farm and Groundworks Contractors Around Land's End
Groundworks at Land's End, the very tip of Cornwall, where the land is open, wind-scoured and given over to farming. For the holdings around Sennen, St Buryan and Porthcurno we build farm tracks, steel-frame buildings, concrete yards and drainage that stand up to Atlantic weather, bringing our own plant out on our own trailers.

Beyond Crows-an-Wra the A30 runs out across a high, almost treeless granite plateau until it stops at the cliffs. The peninsula farms are worked in small fields bounded by stone-faced Cornish hedges, with soil that is often thin over solid granite and exposure that few places in England can match. Gales off the Atlantic arrive with nothing to slow them.
That environment sets the specification. Footings for a farm building may need breaking into rock, while the structure itself must be designed by its engineer for the wind loading of an open site. Tracks need a firm stone build-up and cross drains, because heavy rain on a bare plateau runs fast. Concrete yards are laid with falls that clear water quickly, and fencing is set deep into hard ground.
Around the farms lie St Buryan and its church tower, the Merry Maidens stone circle on the B3315, Porthcurno and the Minack Theatre, and Sennen Cove above Whitesand Bay.
We reach the peninsula from Hayle along the A30 through Penzance, and take the B3315 for the farms on the south coast towards Porthcurno and Treen.
Our Farm and Groundworks Services Around Land's End
Agricultural and Equestrian Groundworks
Farm and equestrian projects. Farm track construction opens up fields reached by long lanes, and agricultural buildings give stock and machinery shelter from the gales. Add horse arena construction, silage clamps and slurry stores, farm concrete yards and the wider agricultural groundworks hub.
Plant Hire
Plant brought to you. For remote holdings, plant hire comes delivered, operated or self-drive, and includes the Valtra tractor with its dump trailer for hauling stone. Mini digger hire suits work inside farmyards and gardens, and chipper hire clears hedge cuttings and storm-felled trees.
Groundworks and Drainage
Rock, water and foundations. Hard granite makes groundworks a job for breakers and accurate setting out. Drainage covers land drains and septic tanks for properties off the mains, concrete works provide bases and slabs, and tree removal and land clearance restores overgrown ground.
Driveways and Landscaping
Homes facing the weather. Granite houses in the villages gain patios, hard landscaping, retaining walls and stock-proof fencing, with driveways in hard-wearing concrete, tarmac or resin.
