Aberystwyth 13

1 : 31680 This plan of Cardigan Bay extends from Aberystwyth at the top left to Llansantffraid at the bottom left. A stretch of the Cambrian Mountains and the peat bogs of Cors-goch Glan Teifi are depicted further inland. The map's scale is noted beneath the formal title and the area of the land recorded as 117.8114 square miles. The circular hole in the top right-hand corner indicates that an 'Ordnance Office Copy' blind stamp has been removed from the sheet. Archaeological sites are named in gothic script. Colour washes depicting relief are combined with numerical annotations in black ink. Dawson, Robert

Plynlimmon

This drawing covers the boundary between the counties of Cardiganshire and Montgomeryshire. The border is marked as a red pecked line, following the course of the River Dovey for much of its length. Archaeological sites are noted in gothic script, an obligatory feature after 1816. A dot within a red triangle represents a trigonometric station, from which the surveyor took angular measurements in order to plot the location of topographical features. Giles, John C

Machynlleth

1 : 31680 .A triangulation diagram appears on the reverse of this drawing. This enabled the draughtsman to plot features of the landscape precisely. There is no shading to describe relief, suggesting the drawing is an intermediate,version,rather than,the finished map. Trigonometrical stations are marked by a dot within a triangle., Some pencil lines can be seen radiating from these, indicating the angular measurements taken from these points., Hughes, Herbert J

Aberystwyth 4

1 : 31680 .The formal title of the drawing states that the survey was conducted under the supervision of Robert Dawson. One of the best surveyors and draughtsmen of the day, Dawson was employed on the Ordnance Survey for over forty years, also working as an instructor. The scale of the drawing is noted and the area of the land recorded as 44.6825 square miles in total. Archaeological sites are named in gothic script. Colour washes depicting relief are combined with numerical annotations or spot heights giving the heights of the hills. Those in red ink indicate trigonometrically ascertained altitudes while those in black are estimated. The paper carries a watermark from the James Whatman Turkey Mill in Kent dated 1819. Budgen, Thomas Jr.

Towyn

1 : 31680 The lack of shading to describe relief indicates that this is an outline drawing: the half-way stage between the original projection and the finished drawing. Towyn appears towards the bottom left of the surveyed area. Individual buildings are depicted in red ink, indicating they are made of stone. Trigonometrical stations are marked by a dot within a red triangle. At Taren Gadian, pencil lines can be seen radiating from the trigonometrical station, indicating the angular measurements the surveyor took from these points. A triangulation diagram on the reverse of the drawing enabled the draughtsman to plot topographical features precisely. Durrant , William R

1 : 31680 .This plan of the,Ystwyth valley in the Cambrian Mountains is formally titled. The scale of the drawing is noted and the area of the land recorded,as 183.0453 square miles. Archaeological sites are named in gothic script. Colour washes depicting relief are combined with numerical annotations ('spot heights'), in red and black ink, indicating the height of the hills. The altitudes in red ink,are trigonometrically ascertained; those in black are estimated. Dawson, Robert

Glasllyn

1 : 31680 This drawing is formally titled. The scale is recorded and the area of land surveyed noted in square miles. A triangulation diagram appears on the reverse of the drawing. Trigonometrical points are marked by a dot within a triangle.,From these,points, the surveyor took angular measurements to plot prominent features of the landscape. Lack of shading to,indicate relief suggests that this is an intermediate,drawing rather than,the finished version. Faint pencil lines form a border around the plan. The top-right corner of the border is marked 'Sheet Edge' to identify,the intended borders of the finished drawing. Giles, John C
