Images courtesy of Alan Duncan, Nursery Manager, Newton Nursery from a small collection of around 20 6x4 inch glass negatives that are stored at the nursery office and date from 1936. The land for the nursery was purchased by the forestry Commission in 1931 and the nursery formed very shortly after.

A view from the west side of the nursery up what is thought to be larch transplants lined out with the long board.

The view is up towards the A96 road.
