Auchterawe hi does anyone know when the forestry cottages at Auchterawe fort augustus were built my Grandparents lived at Aultfern Auchterawe Posted by Anon on 05 February 2010 Have a look in the Forestry Memories Image Library, search under Auchterawe, you will find a video of Allan MacDonald talking about the cottages at Auchterawe. You could maybe get in contact with him there. Posted by on 05 February 2010  Skye forester My name is john -ewan macreas brother My father worked in the pulp mill as foreman of the wood operations basically these guys were employed to fell the trees and get them to roadside for the timber lorries- when theboats came into get loaded or unloaded the wood ops boys had to operate the cranes round the clock until the work was done. i am sure he would happily be interviewed if required he stays on the isle of skye and can be contacted on 01471 822324 01471 822324 Posted by John Macrae on 07 January 2010 Thanks John, I will pass that on to the interviewers, and they may get in touch. I know that the Pulp Mill is of great interest. Posted by Gordon on 14 January 2010 Achnamara This is a wonderful page. I lived in Achnamara until the age of eight and my father (James Peat (CNR)worked in the forestry commission. We lived at Number 19 and I would love to have someone send me some photos of the village, the school and any other photos of the area as I now live in Australia. My email address is; watchdog05@gmail.com And if you type watchdog05 into any browser, you will find a few of my websites with photos. Cheers James (Jimbob) Peat Posted by James Peat on 30 December 2009 Hi Jimbob Fascinating photos of Vietnam and Australia. YOu must have some stories. Keep this site bookmarked, a lot of Achnamara folk come on here, so you may be able to strike up some friendships.
