Inchlumpie Wood, Highland

Inchlumpie sawmill site

Uploader's Comments

This area of flat land by the Black Water was the site of the wartime Inchlumpie sawmill. It was wood built and powered by steam generated from the slab off cuts. Its main output for the war effort was railway sleepers and pit props all made from the lumber of Inchlumpie forest.
