A Coloured Representation, or Bird's-Eye View, of the Storm of "Eneskillin Castell"

This is a pictorial battle plan dating from 1594 of the 1592 siege of Eniskellen castle in Ireland. Although it is attributed Made and dun by John Thomas Solder’ nothing more is known about the draughtsman except that he drew a similar plan of the battle at Beleek the previous year. The activities of war are shown in great detail. It shows how the castle was taken using cannons in trenches, a greate bote’ with 67 men on board which was rowed round and anchored by the wall to breach it, and scaling ladders on the far side of the castle. In Governor Dowdalls Campe’ in the lower left of the drawing is The howse of munition’ and the heads of three rebels are displayed on posts. Thomas, John

A Coloured Representation of the Battle of Ballishannon, Fought on the 17th of October 1593

This is a pictorial battle plan showing the defeat of Maguire at Beleek in county Fermanagh on Oct 10th 1594. It shows the protagonists of the battle and names them in script and records the point in the battle when the River Ern was crossed. The rebels’ are depicted as a disorganized hoard and the draughtsman has included such details as discarded bagpipes among their ranks. The Earl of Tyrone, who was very unwillingly present at the battle is shown ridding beside Sir Henry Bagenal. The drawing is thought to be the work of John Thomas and is likely to have been based on direct observation of the battle rather than the traveller’s tales which many other platts of Ireland are based upon. The arms of Elizabeth I are shown in the top left corner and those of Lord Burghley, to whom the map is dedicated, are above the cartouche. The elaborate fish in the river are perhaps an attempt to show the fertile nature of the area. Beleeck is noted for its rich stocks of eel and salmon and this is perhaps reflected by the fish in the bottom left corner which holds an eel in its mouth. Thomas, John

Ulster

This is a map of the six ‘escheated’ counties of Ulster. It dates from 1609 and may be by John Norden, though likely to be based on the barony maps of Josias Bodley and William Parsons. It seems to be intended as a guide to planned plantings. In 1607 the earls of Ulster fled and the counties of Armagh, Cavan, Coleraine, Donegal, Fermanagh and Tyrone were confiscated by the English and the Scots. In 1608-9 the Commons had drafted plans for English and Scottish planting and lands that were to be retained by the Irish. Norden, John
