The crane went straight to work on MacLeod’s biggest social housing project to date, a £57 million contract for 300 homes in Oban.

MacLeod Construction was founded by twin brothers Murdo and Kenny MacLeod in 1975 as a small building company and has developed into a business with interests ranging from self-build house kits to large developments for local authorities and housing associations. It has its own timber frame manufacturing facility, two quarries, runs its own services division and operates a local filling station.
