1982 Scammell built Constructor eight wheeler, still wears its GB (Manchester) numberplate, WND 900X, having been given the 'Maltese treatment' and awaits its new body and owner at Burmarrad Commercials on Malta in 1993. Note the ex. Wincanton Transport ERFs in the background, also awaiting buyers.
A Black Country firm that led a nomadic existence over the years was Regis Aggregates, with one of their six-wheeled Constructors seen here. Sadly, this no frills fleet, is sadly no more,

1958 Scammell Junior Constructor
Preserved, ex Motor Industry Research Association, Nuneaton, Warwickshire
Jacks Hill Cafe, Towcester, 16 April 2017
A fascinating beast, bought new by MIRA in 1958 and kept there until 2012, hidden from view and never leaving the site so few knew of its existence. It was used for testing the towing weight of other lorries and carried a huge dynamometer on the back that was driven by the wheels to provide resistance to the towing vehicle. When retired it had covered just 800 miles in over 50 years!

Henry the Constructor is inspired by the construction industry and is an attempt to bring a lively and fun character to the trail that both adults and children will easily relate to and enjoy. It mainly draws inspiration from Bob the Builder and portrays that with a positive attitude no problem is too difficult to solve.

Summer 2016, a herd of elephant sculptures descended on Sheffield for the biggest public art event the city has ever seen!
58 elephant sculptures, each uniquely decorated by artists, descended on Sheffield’s parks and open spaces, creating one of the biggest mass participation arts events the city has ever seen. Did you find them all?
The trail of elephants celebrates Sheffield’s creativity with over 75% of artists from the city. Some well-known names include Pete McKee, James Green, Jonathan Wilkinson and Lydia Monks – each of which has put their own creative mark on a 1.6m tall fibreglass elephant sculpture. They are all very difference, take a selfie with your favourite as they will be on display until the end of September.
International artist Mark Alexander, who is currently working with Rembrandt for an exhibition in Berlin, flew to Sheffield especially to paint his elephant and international players from the World Snooker Championship signed SnookHerd, an elephant celebrating the heritage of snooker in Sheffield.
The Arctic Monkeys, famous for their love of their home city, added their signatures to their own personalised sculpture which pays homage to the striking sound wave cover of the band’s 2013 album “AM”.
By supporting the Herd of Sheffield you are investing in the future of Sheffield Children’s Hospital. Every penny raised will go towards our Artfelt programme, which transforms the hospital’s walls and spaces with bright art, helping children recover in an environment tailored to them. The programme also puts on workshops for youngsters to provide distraction during anxious moments – such as before an operation, and to breakup long stays on the wards.
This exciting Wild in Art event brought to you by The Children’s Hospital Charity will:
Unite our city – bringing businesses, communities, artists, individuals and schools together to create a FREE sculpture trail which is accessible to all.
Attract more visitors – both nationally and regionally as well as encouraging thousands of people to become a tourist in their own city.
Invest in the future – with a city wide education programme that can be used for years to come and by funding a life-saving piece of medical equipment at Sheffield Children’s Hospital from the Herd auction at the end of the trail.
Showcase our city – celebrating Sheffield’s heritage and cementing our status as a vibrant and culturally exciting city through this world-class initiative.
The Herd of Sheffield Farewell Weekend was held on 14-16 October and was your chance to say a last goodbye to all 58 large elephant sculptures as they gather in one place for a final send-off at Meadowhall.
This special event gave visitors a chance to see the entire herd in all its glory – from the signed Arctic Monkeys’ ‘AM’ elephant, right through to ‘SnookHerd’, autographed by a host of international snooker players including current world champion Mark Selby.
Please note that the Little Herd elephants will not be on display as they will be returned to their school for pupils to enjoy.
Meadowhall, along with its joint owners, British Land are very proud to be supporting The Children’s Hospital Charity as host sponsors for the Herd of Sheffield Farewell Weekend.
Auction: Hundreds of elephant enthusiasts gathered at the Crucible on 20 October for the Herd of Sheffield Auction, which raised a total of £410,600 for The Children’s Hospital Charity.

STONEHENGE-ARTE-PINTURA-OBSERVATORIOS-SOL-LUNA-ASTROS-ARTISTA-PINTOR-ERNEST DESCALS-
Conjunto de Piedras, unas erguidas de pie, otras coronando a las demás, nadie sabe exactamente como se dispusieron en su Inicio, pero resulta muy claro que no son un Monumento a la nada, sus cometidos constan en los Libros del Ayer, ahora creemos que fueron un Observatorio Solar y también Lunar, un maravilloso Medio para seguir los movimientos de los Astros que nos acompañan en sus movimientos,en un Tiempo lejano los instruidos con la Sabiduria Celeste podián saber lo que les interesaba en los Designios escritos en el Firmamento. Precisión y Tecnologia antiguas, somos tan ignorantes que sinó hubieran podido sobrevivir estas Maravillas, aún creeríamos que ahora somos muy sabios, cuando en realidad sabemos menos que nunca. Algunos valientes aventurados sostienen que el Sagrado Constructor fue Toth, uno de los Anunnaki que se pasearon durante milenios por nuestro Planeta,es muy posible, parece que su fiebre Constructora hizo que dispusiera un montón de edificaciones en toda la Tierra. Me apasiona Pintar con humildad artística sobre estos Enclaves repletos de Magia y Conocimiento,son huellas de los Tiempos Primordiales en los que dicen vivíamos en cuevas,la continua negación de los dias anteriores, y que más dá, la Ignorancia es imposible de canviar. Pinturas del artista Pintor ERNEST DESCALS con los registros del ayer que será el mañana, cuando el Hombre se pueda quitar de encima la muy pesada carga de Ignorancia Voluntaria.
Narrow cabbed Constructor 8 fitted with roll-on/roll-off gear of A.D Hill from the West Midlands was captured in their yard some years ago now. On that Bristol reg. I wonder if the motor was Ex.Hemmings?
Not many "old" lorries to be seen in Northern Ireland but I did come across this well kept Leyland Constructor 24.21 on a trip in 2007.
