Tyndrum Block

This is a view up the Fillan towards Tyndrum. The block of coniferous forestry running up the hill to the right is the Tyndrum block, a Forestry Commission plantation that cannot be harvested because modern harvesting machinery cannot cross the railway line that runs beneath it. Being in such a prominent location, just behind Tyndrum and in the Loch Lomond & Trossachs National Park, this is going to be a big issue in the future. We are picking up some significant issues like this in our survey work, and, in this case, we would like to strengthen the case for addressing this issue sooner rather than later.
