Description:
|
This manuscript plan of Minnigaff, Kirkcudbright, was surveyed in 1731 by Andrew Herron of Bargaty. It shows the marches between neighbouring estates of Carnbaber and Largourlie. The ground is drawn in detail with annotations differentiating between meadow, good pasture and poorer pasture with heath or heather in it. The rough ground is indicated with rock symbols. As increasing numbers of landowners enclosed land during the 18th century. Disputes frequently arose concerning property boundaries and plans of this type became important in establishing rights.
