Description:
This is an engraving by Richard Cooper from an original survey drawing by David Dowie. The map was drawn in connection with a land dispute. The map covers an area of hill land in Perthshire, depicting the relief of the hills and the lines of the watercourses quite accurately. A number of small settlements are named. Some are specifically marked as shielings or summer grazing. Mamlorne had been a royal hunting forest. It is first mentioned in the Exchequer Rolls in 1456 when James II declared that all grazing and other farming on the land was to cease and the land was to be left waste to preserve the hunting.
