Guisachan Forest Planting Map
Map is courtesy of Inverness, Ross and Skye Forest District and staff at their Fort Augustus office. See the large picture.
An original hand drawn planting map of Guisachan Forest with compartments starting at No 1 planted in 1948 through to 1952 with some later panting in the 1960s. Someone has shaded the map to highlight the various planted tree species but it also appears that some older trees were acquired with the land. These can be seen more clearly in the resurveyed stock maps. Unusually the land for this forest was acquired in 1935 but little appears to have happened until after the war.
Any further early details and names of foresters and workers would be very welcome.
