'Please see attached photographs which were taken by a relation of mine, but I unfortunately have no dates when they were taken. Maybe someone can help with dates. Any further information would be most welcome.

Just had a phone call from Leslie Foubister from Toab who tells me that this photo is of James Muir of Ladywater, Burray taking part in a ploughing match in Burray in 1952, which was held at Westermill and Cellardyke.
