Brian S. Brookes - Schoenus Ferrugineus Research
Three boxes of Schoenus Ferrugineus research by Brian S. Brookes
Box 1 contains 2 photos of Jigme Dorji Wangchuck, future King of Bhutan inspecting Schoenus ferrugineus with George Sherriff.
Collection seems to focus around a plantation of Schoenus ferrugineus that was growing on the banks of Loch Tummel that was lost by a hydro scheme in the 1940s/1950s? and Brookes's attempts to replant a new population at Loch Tummel in the 1970s.

Box 8 - G. Sherriff colour photographs and exhibition display prints
The original G. Sherriff photographs are a range of flora, people and landscape shots. The reverse of the photo often has the date, location, country. If the photograph is of a plant then the name, number of the plant and location will often be written on the reverse. They are stamped on the reverse as being a 'vivid colour print'. The prints of the digital, exhibition display images, have the photo disk number written on the reverse of the print.
