World War II Women. Pulling her weight. Miss Joan Niven
World War II Women. Pulling her weight. Miss Joan Niven, 19 year old postwoman of Drynachan, near Inverness, Scotland claims to have the most isolated beat in the British Isles. She walks 17 miles three times in a week, to cross the River Findhorn she uses a box suspended on a wire cable pulling herself over by another wire. Seven persons are seen by her during the walk of 17 miles. Last winter ice and snow on the moor tracks prevented the small motor mail van from contacting Miss Niven, she walked seven miles through the snow to meet the van for several weeks. Miss Niven started this job to aid the war effort but she is thinking of joining the W.A.A.F s. Here Miss Joan Niven fording the River Findhorn. November 1941 P010263
