Ploughing in Fetteresso or Drumtochty Forests
Forest Research photographs courtesy of Glenn Brearley. Nil Ref No.
Mr Ender Rudolf from Germany or Austria toured around some Forestry Commission sites in Scotland in 1954 and on his return appears to have compiled a photographic album of his visit. He must have copied some of the pages of photographs and returned at least 15 pages to Scotland. The first 4 pages show 12 images from either Fetteresso or Drumtochty.
D4 Caterpillar tractor (GHV???) and Cutbertson peat plough resting for the photograph. Working on a hard mineral site and not really suited to this type of plough but may have been for demonstration purposes. Can anyone name the driver?
