Brian comments;
‘Found the attached abandoned log pole trailer in Inshriach Forest Strathspey forest. This area was bought from the Grant family in 1954 and the standing crop was planted in 1965. This trailer must have been abandoned when the hill was cleared of the previous crop of Scots Pine ( afforested on 1903 OS map) Could this have been wartime fellings?’

Any comments and further information very welcome.
