The cherry picker has arrived!

The Nicholson's tree surgery team have got another piece of equipment to help them continue the good work on our clients trees. This 18 meter cherry picker is mounted on a Nissan Cabstar so we can transport it effectively around the countryside to help us get access to those hard to reach places quickly and efficiently.

We got this machine to enable us to undertake some of those tricky jobs and help reduce the fatigues associated with climbing using ropes and harnesses. This machine will be used by the team whenever possible in order that we continue to abide by current Health and Safety guidelines!

David and Sophie Harber



How refreshing in todays busy commercial environment that artist and sundial specialist, David Harber, took time to consult his customers about his work. In a new initiative, David and Sophie Harber invited several designers and landscape architects to discuss current trends in the industry and review possible materials for the future. The day was an inspiration where like minded people, who often work in relative professional isolation, had the chance to brainstorm industry trends. David and Sophie were very hospitable and I think that I can speak for all involved when I say that the day was very worthwhile. Good luck David!

New Barn at Nicholsons


Nicholsons have just re-erected an old timber framed barn at the main site at North Aston. The barn was originally on one of their clients sites and it was dismantled and carefully re-erected. With a new roof and cladding this will give Nicholsons a perfect barn to use for staff training, staff meetings and for lectures and seminars.
Nicholsons have just launched their Country Gardeners Club with a series of lectures (which will be held in the barn)and visits. Please see the website for further details.
