Scots pine poles — Invergordon

The photograph is courtesy of Inverness, Ross and Skye Forest District and staff at their Fort Augustus office.

No information other than the heading details supplied with this image and guestimated as around 1975. It is not certain whether these poles are being loaded or unloaded at Invergordon but perhaps someone can provide more information?

Billy Green, Nothn Connel, says it is possible the poles could be imported Scots pine for a telephone pole treatment works set up in Fearn about that time. Unfortunately the venture only lasted a year or two (added Oct 2019)

Groups: Ships, boats and sea transport
