Can someone confirm to me that these are drainage marks in the turnip field in the foreground?
Added by W Thomson on 12 June 2005.
Yes. These show the route of the drains that my Dad put in some 30 years ago.

I can also confirm those are the lines of field drains, I measured them on behalf of Duncan Macpherson and prepared a plan of same, for the then Dept. of Agriculture. I still have the aerial B&W negatives
I took to confirm the work was executed!! At that time I hired a Cessna 150, which could get low enough
for hand held camera work. My Negs. are marked ''Duncan's Drains/Cromarty Mains''

Yes Will, they are the drains as Niall says.
