Llantrisant
This plan covers part of the southern Welsh coast. Field boundaries and woodland are indicated. Shading and soft brushwork interlining ('hachuring') denote relief. The detailed recording of the undulations of the land is a defining feature of Ordnance Survey drawings, revealing the strategic and military impetus behind the scheme. Budgen, Thomas
Bridgend
1 : 31680 Thomas Budgen, who worked on the majority of the Welsh plans, is probably the author of this drawing of part of Glamorgan. Following military convention, Mynydd Maendy, Mynydd Llangeinwyr and other reliefs to the north of Bridgens are represented by dense hachuring (interlining)graduating to lighter bands towards the summits. Commons, broken mountainland and upland moors are represented by open dotting. In the lower part of the sheet, field boundaries indicate agricultural land. Budgen, Thomas
Aberdare
1 : 31680 With 8,000 inhabitants, Merthyr Tydfil was the largest town in Wales during the 19th century. The town, appearing towards the right-hand margin, had access to large supplies of iron and coal, attracting ironmasters and ironworkers from miles away with the promise of high wages and good housing. A network of tramroads, the horse-worked railways that predated the locomotive era, was laid out to transport coal and ore from the pits to the iron works. The drawing indicates these tramroads with double dotted lines. Mines are shown as dots within circles. Budgen, Thomas
Bedwas
1 : 31680 .Bedwas was one of the first industrial towns in England. The surrounding area is rich in coal, iron ore and limestone deposits. There is evidence that suggests the monks of Neath Abbey,amp; may have been using coal to make iron since AD1284. By the early 19th century, an elaborate network of horse-worked railways ('iron ways') was being built to connect collieries and ironworks. These are indicated on the plan by parallel lines highlighted in yellow ochre. Budgen, Charles
