Little information given but appears to be an overview of an area of tunnel ploughing. Information is ‘Achray 3 - U treatment Glenamoy Ploughing 1964 - W Henman.

This part of the site may be the ends of the tunnel ploughed plots and an untreated area just showing a cross drain. Looks a very wet and unproductive site. Did the trees grow? The answer seems to be yes as Google Maps (2014) shows remarkably even growth of the trees on the site and also shows clearly the unplanted plots.

Will it ever be harvested?
