Canons Marsh Crane - Bristol


June 2012

This was my very first crane. I did intend on getting up a higher one nearby but the base upon close inspection was surrounded in high boarding with no clear way out. It was such a buzz getting up there and the very gusty wind, loose railings, seriously loud creaking hatch door and dodgy floor made it even more interesting.

This crane is on the site of the old Bristol Gas Works at Canons Marsh, Bristol. It seems like they are doing something with the building that has been closed and roofless since 1936! IIRC it was about 50m high, so not all that high but a good starter crane I think.
