Cowie Falls dam?

from Halifax Municipal Archives

• Abbie Hudson said:

  Tricky one... looks like it could be the Cowie Falls dam in Milton? Here's a picture: www.hippostcard.com/listing/cowies-falls-milton-nova-scot...

  Incredible sleuthing, www.flickr.com/photos/202763587@N04/. Water levels do change a lot around dams, so a definite possibility. According to the Nova Scotia Water Control Structure Database, Cowie Falls dam was built in 1929. The clothes on these gentlemen look a little earlier than that, perhaps?

  The construction of the Inniscara Dam flooded part of the Cork Macroom railway. www.flickr.com/photos/abandonedrailsireland/6059862111/in... A few bridges and viaducts are still visible, at times, in the reservior.

  Construction of the dam started in February 1953. Commission date 1957. Do I see pylons in the valley behind? Below the dam itself perhaps?
