Exmouth

This plan of the area around the mouth of the River Exe is comprised of two sheets joined together. The meticulous detail of the survey extends to recording sandbanks and details of the river bed. Relief is indicated by interlining ('hachuring') and shading. Stippling and stripes distinguish different land usage. A faint blue line with a quartered circle extending into Holcombe Down, at centre bottom, is probably an observation or measuring line. Annotations in pencil record the scale and date of the survey. At the bottom-right edge, "Part of the Ordn[ance"] is written ink. Stanley, William

Exeter

This drawing covers the land either side of the Ex River. Exeter, the largest settlement, is shown in great detail. A barracks, poor house and 'New Gaol' are shown by red blocks on the outskirts of the settlement. The main road leading into Exeter is tinted yellow to indicate its status as a major communication route. A tollgate, marked 'T. Gate", appears on this road at the entrance to the town. A tributary of the Ex River features a series of locks, annotated and marked by a break in the green line that represents water. Lime Kilns are noted in the area. To the left of the drawing, above Whitstone, a dot with a pencil line radiating from it indicates a point from which the surveyor took an angular measurement to plot the path leading from the main road to Springs. Budgen, Thomas

Bickleigh

.Although it was not until 1816 that recording archaeological sites became obligatory, the draughtsman of this map has indicated an iron-age hillfort, Cadbury Castle, near the town of Cadbury. It is depicted by a rough ring at the summit of a hill. Inclines in general are indicated by dense brushwork. The River Ex is shown in green. Its left bank is drawn with a reinforced line to denote a river that was particularly wide or tidal. Budgen, Thomas
