Jean Cameron the postie of Glen Clova in the Scottish Highlands
Jean Cameron the postie of Glen Clova in the Scottish Highlands. Seen here on her 15 miles a day mail round. She uses a cycle and where there are no roads, walks. There are dykes to climb, rocks to be got over, and very often, she has to cross the River Eske via rope bridges.
Jean successfully campaigned for women postmen to be issued with trousers as part of their uniform.
Circa 1942

Jean Cameron - The Fearless Postie of Glen Clova in the Scottish Highlands
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures the indomitable spirit of Jean Cameron, the legendary postwoman who fearlessly traversed the rugged terrain of Glen Clova in the Scottish Highlands. With her trusty bicycle as her companion, Jean embarked on a grueling 15-mile mail round each day, delivering letters and parcels to remote corners of this picturesque landscape. In an era when women's roles were often confined to domesticity, Jean shattered stereotypes with her determination and resilience. Where roads ceased to exist, she would continue on foot, scaling dykes and conquering treacherous rocks that stood in her path. Crossing the mighty River Eske was no ordinary feat for Jean; she relied on precarious rope bridges that tested both her physical strength and unwavering courage. Not content with merely revolutionizing postal delivery routes, Jean also fought tirelessly for gender equality within her profession. Her relentless campaigning led to a significant milestone - women postmen being issued trousers as part of their uniform. This groundbreaking achievement empowered countless women across Scotland and beyond. Taken circa 1942 during World War II, this poignant image serves as a testament to human resilience amidst conflict. It encapsulates not only Jean's remarkable journey but also pays homage to all those who defied adversity during this tumultuous period. This extraordinary photograph from Memory Lane Prints transports us back in time, allowing us a glimpse into an era where bravery knew no bounds and ordinary individuals
