After the second world war, a huge civil engineering project took place in Scotland aimed at providing cheap and efficient electricity for the whole country. Tunnels and dams were built on a scale never seen before. But because there was a shortage of man power in the country, workers from elsewhere came to dig and blast the rock. Many came from poverty stricken Ireland and it is their courage and tenacity that we have to thank for our hydro network today. In this edition of Our Story, Mark Stephen speaks to 4 men who came to Scotland to build the hydro in the 1950's and hears about how they lived in an environment when health and safety was not a priority.
