Tilhill Forestry (Scotland) Ltd Fire Warning Sign
The photographs are courtesy of Will Anderson, Seafield and Strathspey Estates.
This image is of another follower of the Forestry Commission type fire warning sign but with a very different and dramatic colour scheme. The type face and font size look very similar with only the very top line name being different from Forestry Commission with its Crown.
Will has also sent and image of a later Tilhill fire warning sign as in the attached PDF. He believes it may have been designed by Vaughn Hammond but not certain and any information would be very welcome.
It does show that a number of private estates and companies took the FC’s lead in the design of the pictorial type signs initially and gradually moved to their own design later. Any information on periods of use would be very welcome also.
