Description:
|
This plan of the town of Inverness and Fort George is undated and unsigned, but it is of a similar period to the 1730 plan of Fort George at Inverness, by John Romer, at shelfmark MS.1646.Z.02/33a, and his 1732 plan at shelfmark MS.1646.Z.02/34a, and its contemporary copy at shelfmark MS.1646.Z.02/34b. The handwriting on this plan could possibly be the same handwriting as on the plan at shelfmark MS.1646.Z02/34b. It cannot post-date 1746, as Fort George, Inverness was destroyed by the Jacobite army at that date, and was rebuilt at Ardersier.
