Armac call time on former well known Coventry pub
Whilst most of England spent Saturday preparing for our football team to demolish the USA in the World Cup (and we all know what happened there!) Armac spent Saturday demolishing a famous Coventry pub The Greyhound to make way for the new Severn Trent offices.
The tight site surrounded by listed buildings and the new offices meant that Armac had to bring to site one of their high reach machines that, owing to it’s size turns slower than Emile Heskey, and had to sit it farther away from the building than normal to carry out the works.
An early start, a good driver and great team work saw the pub quickly reduced to rubble that was then crushed on site and used to backfill the cellar.
The photograph shows the large grab attachment in use that would have really helped Robert Green on Saturday night to hold onto the shot from Clint Dempsey!
