Description:
A large scale map of the coastline of southeast Sutherland and Easter Ross, from Dunrobin Castle to the Moray Firth. There is partial coverage in detail, inland between the Firths of Tain and Cromarty and in the north of the Black Isle. There is a small map of the Ord of Caithness in the top right. The depiction of the coastline resembles that of Robert Gordon's maps nos. 16 and 17, including the amended orientation of the Beauly Firth. The map was compiled by Robert Gordon of Straloch (1580-1661) and is in part copied from a manuscript map compiled by Timothy Pont in the last two decades of the sixteenth century and now in the National Library of Scotland.
