PCE puts "Old Big 'Ead" in his place!
PCE’s construction team was called in to put soccer legends Brian Clough and sparring partner Peter Taylor in their place!
Working on behalf of Derbyshire based Evans Concrete Products PCE’s expertise in precast concrete erection earned a contract to erect a new monument to football management’s 20th century dynamic duo at Derby County Football Club.
The company has played a key role in the creation of the iconic Clough Taylor monument which is now the centre piece of Unity Plaza at Pride Park.
PCE was responsible for the erection of more than 100 white high quality precast concrete elements manufactured by Evans. Following the six-day build, a bronze statue of the world-famous football partners was mounted on the top plinth.
In addition to the plinth PCE placed the steps leading up to the monument, along with seating, paving and planters. The “defect free” task was supervised by two trainee foremen and took 210 safe working hours to complete.
