Fire Tower — Cardrona Forest

Fire Tower — Cardrona Forest

Date Added: 15 February 2019 Contributor: Norman Davidson Year of Photo: 1965 Picture No: 4356

The image is courtesy of Ruth Robertson, Peebles, whose father George once worked in nearby Glentress Forest and later moved into sawmilling.

The image shows a quite a tall wooden tower with small observation hut on top. Can anyone say when this fire lookout tower was built and how long it lasted? The year of photograph is an estimate.
