Description:
The major portion of this sheet is a hand coloured 'prospect' of the area around the Bernera Barracks, at Glen Elg, with a small map of the area inset in the upper right corner. The artist was John Henri Bastide, a Board of Ordnance surveyor and draughtsman, who usually worked in partnership with John Dumaresq. There are 'key' letters on the picture, however, with an 'Explanation' of the features to which they refer, in one corner. The letters also refer to features on the inset map, which has been done from a survey by 'Mr. Jelf', who was also working with Bastide at that time, at all four of the new Highland forts, Bernera, Inversnaid, Ruthven and Kiliwhimen.
