Think they belong to someone who used to do pipe lines, so makes sense. Strip top soil aswell

Where are they ? The digger looks like a 215 . I worked with a guy in the 80s had one we worked together on oil pipe lines with these buckets on for reinstatement work . Mine was a 14 ft pile casing cut down with a cradle on it . You could shift a lot of soil with them
