Lampeter

Capel Bettws

1 : 31680 Robert Dawson is author of this drawing, which shows west Wales from Carmarthenshire to Cardigan Bay. One of the best surveyors and draughtsmen, Dawson was employed on the Ordnance Survey for over forty years, also working as an instructor. Below the formal title of the plan, in the top left margin, is an area calculation in black ink. Brushwork interlinging ('hachuring') and colour washes depicting relief are combined with numerical annotations ('spot heights') describing the height of the land. Those altitudes noted in red ink are trigonometrically ascertained; those in black are estimated. Dawson, Robert

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

Cardiganshire

1 : 31680 This drawing is formally titled. Its scale is noted and the surveyed area recorded as 205.6742 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 giving the heights of the hills. Figures in red represent trigonometrically ascertained altitudes whereas those in black are estimates. On the top left margin a note, dated 1st April 1822, from draughtsman Robert Dawson reads: "Cws yr ychen Bannog, is an ancient Bank said to run from sea to sea. It could not be traced in this survey beyond Carn Cron. The Rev John Williams of Ystrad Meyric supposes it may be a British Road, or a Boundary between two tribes of the Britons". Dawson, Robert

Builth

1 : 31680 These field sketches of the Irfon Valley in central Wales were made on several pieces of thin and irregularly cut paper, joined and laid down on thick paper. The assemblage was cut into 12 rectangular pieces, each approximately 200 x 310mm, then remounted to form one sheet. The many pencil notes on the drawing were made before the sheet was cut. The map provides a good illustration of the convention of 'relative command', which indicates the relative height of the hills using black ink numbers: Hill 3 being higher than Hill 2, for example. Brushwork interlining and ink washes further depict relief. Dawson, Robert

Llandovery(002OSD000000021U00147000)

1 : 31680 This plan of part of East Carmarthenshire and West Pembrokeshire shows the county border as a red line near the right margin of the sheet. A table above the plan gives trigonometrical data. Triangulation,lines in pencil are clearly visible outside the surveyed area. Colour washes are used to indicate relief, with numbers at the summit of inclines giving their altitude in feet. Dawson, Robert

Cardigan

1 : 31680 This plan of part of Cardiganshire shows the county town on the,north bank of the,River Teify as it,enters Cardigan,Bay. Further inland, the landscape is dominated by moorland and the peaks of the Presely Mountains, represented by dense brushwork interlining ('hachuring'). The huge blue stones,that make up,the ancient ceremonial site of Stonehenge came from these mountains -,a journey of some 200 miles. Budgen, Thomas

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.
