Single furrow ploughing — unknown location

Thought to be a Fiat Allis ploughing tractor, registration number VHM400M, with a single furrow Cuthbertson head plough, working in an unknown location. The slightly wider view shows some clues to the location of the ploughing site. The driver’s face is still in shadow and hard to make out. Location possibly in the Torrachilty /Contin area? Any ideas of driver's name?

Glen Sgiach again, with the vitrified fort, Cnoc Mor and the FC's Blackmuir Wood to the West on the lower slopes, South of Strathpeffer. Urray and on the western skyline the start of the Strathfarrer hills. Comment left on 14 March 2013 at 00:36 by Bill Rayner
