Description:
A plan of Fort William in the year 1719, with plans of three floors, and elevations and sections, showing the Lieutenant Governor's appartment and offices, the master gunner's appartment, the gunners' stores, and space for the storekeepers, smiths and 'meat garners', along with the sutling rooms (private mess). The 'Board of Ordnance Register of Plans 1700-1800' lists 'Mr. Jelfe' as the architect, and although does not mention Thomas Moore as the draughtsman, comparison with other Jelfe plans which are signed by Moore (q.v.) shows that this is in his style. It accompanies the plan at shelfmark MS.1646.Z.02/26a (1785 copy, by Pressick Dodd, at shelfmark MS.1646.Z.02/26b).
