Description:
An incomplete manuscript map of southwest Scotland, from Irvine in the northwest to Annan in the southeast. It was compiled by Robert Gordon of Straloch (1580-1661), at an unknown date after 1633. The detail is almost entirely confined to South Ayrshire, from the River Irvine in the north to the southern watershed of the River Stinchair in the south. The source of the compilation was the observations of Timothy Pont, in the last two decades of the sixteenth century. Greater detail of South Ayrshire, as recorded by Pont, can be found on maps entitled CARRICTA MERIDIONALIS and CARICTA BOREALIS published by J. Blaeu in his 'Atlas Novus' published in Amsterdam in 1654.
