GROUNDSKEEPING
COSMIC ISEKI STARS AT PORTRACK HOUSE
A range of ISEKI machines are helping to maintain the Garden of Cosmic Speculation – an incredible 30-acre sculpture garden located at Portrack House , near Dumfries in South West Scotland .
Forty major areas , gardens , bridges , landforms , sculptures , terraces , fences and architectural works , the Garden of Cosmic Speculation is a sight to behold . The masterpiece features landscape work based on the Big Bang , geometric fractals , twisting DNA helixes , and black holes .
Groundcare Manager at Portrack House , Ben Wakefield , admits that he is fortunate to work at such a magical site , but it is safe to say he has his work cut out . In maintaining the vast area , Ben claims he needs every machine to be a ‘ workhorse ’ and it is for this reason that there was only one brand he considered when he needed a new tractor .
“ We already had a ride-on mower and a tractor from ISEKI , and we wanted to extend our fleet ,” said Ben . “ The machinery we have had from ISEKI in the past has covered all the bases . We have found them to be reliable , trustworthy , strong and they have taken literally everything we have thrown at them … and even a little bit more .”
Ben recently added the ISEKI TXGS24 compact tractor to his fleet . Used in a huge range of applications where a small multiuse sub compact tractor is required , the TXGS24 is the ultimate compact multi-purpose tractor . With 3-point linkage , mid and rear PTOs , optional mower decks and front loader the uses for the TXGS24 tractor are limitless .
