Training in Stonehaven: what to expect
Stonehaven (population ~11,600 (NRS 2022)) is about 35 road miles from our Aboyne base, ~1 hr via A957. Local work is mostly civils, marine, distribution and agricultural operators.
Spurryhillock estate, harbour-side work and Mearns farms — exposed coastal wind loading and unstable ground after wet spells make MEWP and crane lift-planning particularly important here.
The local operating challenge
Coastal gusting at Spurryhillock and the harbour regularly closes MEWP and crane work above mid-spec wind limits — operators here need confident anemometer-based stop-work decisions.
