Chester 26

1 : 31680 This plan follows the meandering River Dee from Chester, at the top of the map, to Overton and Ruabon, at the bottom left. A section of the Shropshire Union Canal, running from Chester to Waverton, is shown in blue. At the bottom left of the map, an area calculation table survives in black ink. The pencil gridlines running through Chester were most likely guides for making enlarged or reduced copies of the map. Field, John

Cyrn y Brain

1 : 31680 The county boundary of Denbighshire and Flintshire is indicated here by a red pecked line. The plan is formally titled, with a note in the top left corner explaining that it has been copied from the original protraction with north facing upwards instead of true. A triangulation diagram appears on the reverse of the drawing: this enabled the draughtsman to plot with prominent topographical features with precision. Many pencil lines radiate from a trigonometrical point at Cefny Fedw, indicated by a dot within a triangle. These represent the angular measurements taken from this point. Giles, John C.

Llangollen

1 : 31680 A triangulation diagram appears on the reverse of this drawing. This enabled draughtsmen to plot the exact location of topographical features. Mileage is indicated on major communication routes, accompanied by abbreviations of the town names from which distance has been measured. For example, the abbreviation 'MS L''2' indicates two miles from Llangollen. Archaeological sites are named in gothic script. A triangulation grid is faintly visible in the left hand portion of the drawing, and pencil lines radiate from trigonometrical stations, marked by dots within triangles. Durrant, William R
