1706-1800
Description: 
This map of 4 enclosures has no date or attribution, and its precise location is unknown, although it has been attributed to the parish of Uphall in West Lothian. However a note at the bottom of the map reads 'The ground within these points was added to the Enclosure in the end of the year 1706', so it must post-date that year. A portion of the sheet appears to have been cut off the bottom. On the recto, the top of writing can be seen. On the verso, there is a fine drawing of the head of a child in late 17th. century/early 18th. century dress, but the top of the head is missing. On the verso of the sheet is a statement of the area of the four enclosures 'The whole Inclosures on the other side contain (something scored out) 24 Acres of grounds, & near a Rood of which (something scored out), The ditches round the whole, from the utmost Brink to half a yard within the thorns, with the cross ditches, & walks betwixt them, make in all 1 Acre, 3 Rood 4/5'.
