Description:
This sheet is in two parts. The bottom half shows the plan of the front entrance to the fort, and the top half shows the elevations and sections of the ravelin gate which had been completed in 1744, and the improvements to the main gate proposed for 1745. This would put it third in the sequence of six plans drawn up by Dugal Campbell between 1744 and 1746, detailing the upgrading of the fort. It is however, not Dugal Campbell's original, which seems to have been lost, but John Field's copy done in 1812, probably in the Tower of London Drawing Room.
