They look like Richmond buff to me, 450x450x32 If they are Marshall's ,you can get them at any Travis yard. They need laying well for a drive and on a solid base or they will crack . Ideally look for 450x450x50 or 60mm thick for a drive

When I drove my hired 1.5t mini diggers I used a grab lorry. So have you got room for a large heap of soil.. Normally you dig the area where you stock pile the spoil first, dig back and then move it to where you've dug out.. Then add to it. I reckon you will need 2grab lorry loads for that. So...
