Description:
This is a copy of a Dugal Campbell plan which would probably be fifth in a set of six plans that he produced for the upgrading of Fort William between 1744 and 1746. It shows the completion of much of the work mentioned in the previous plans, with the exceptions of the main gate, which has not yet been started (although plans had been drawn up, see shelfmark MS.1646.Z.02/27a and shelfmark MS.1646.Z.02/27b), and the additional barracks (shelfmark MS.1646.Z.02/30a, with a copy at shelfmark MS.1646.Z.02/30b), which were a later proposal. The officers' barracks (shelfmark MS.1646.Z.02/28b) has one storey completed. The other plans in the set are soldiers' barracks, the bakehouse and proposals for a ravelin gate and the main gate at shelfmark MS.1646.Z.02/28a, and the Governor's house at shelfmark MS.1646.Z.02/28c.
