Archival HistorySix volumes, the last (72873 A-F) consisting of a group of loose maps. The terriers have been compiled on large folio gatherings of paper, and the maps, drawn on larger sheets, are now mounted along the left hand edges of blank leaves added to these gatherings. The maps are executed in ink and coloured washes and most have cartouches, compass roses and scale bars in a variety of decorative styles. The remains of paper index tabs survive on the foredges of some of the leaves. There are a few pencilled annotations by the 6th Marquess of Lansowne. Vols. B-D have contemporary matching bindings of dark brown leather; the binding of Vol. E, with the [17-18th cent.?] label 'Vlster' in ink on the cover, is apparently also contemporary, but in leather of lighter brown. The first leaves of several gatherings of Vol. F are discoloured as if they had been left unbound for some time; the binding, of reversed calf, blind- ruled and -stamped, was probably added in the 18th cent. In the early 20th cent., prior to 1919, the maps were dismounted, repaired, backed with cloth and remounted in most cases along the left-hand edges instead of the centre fold, by British Museum conservators, and repairs also made to the bindings. 440 x 290 (72872: 450 x 300) mm. Formerly Bowood Vols. 24-28.
