Description
A New Map of the north part of Scotland published in Camden's Britannia in London in 1722. Drawn and engraved by Andrew Johnston, it was based on a map drawn by Senex in 1721, which was itself based on Gordon of Straloch's map. There is a marginal key to the symbols. Settlements are divided into cities, small cities, market town and villages, each with a different symbol. Castles, archbishoprics, bishoprics and universities are also shown. The accuracy of the key is however illusory. For example, in 1790, only 70 years after the map was printed, the population of Inverurie was 360 compared with 27,608 in Aberdeen. Yet both settlements were shown with the symbol for a small city.

Description
Drawn and engraved by Andrew Johnston, this map was based on one drawn by John Senex in 1721, which was itself based on Gordon of Straloch's map. It is an attractive map with a thickened outline defining the shoreline and fine hatching along the coast and on lakes and estuaries. Forests and mountains are shown but as formalised symbols rather than realistic depictions. Longitude and latitude lines are drawn across the map and the degrees north and west of London are marked in the margin.

It was drawn by a government army surveyor in February 1746, at which time the Jacobites armies were retreating towards Culloden. Lieutenant Jasper Leigh Jones also drew a map of the Battle of Culloden (at shelfmark MS.1648.Z.03/30b).

This map of the Orkney Islands was engraved in 1599 by Pieter van den Keere (1571-c.1646), a Flemish engraver who worked in London at the end of the 16th century. His sister married the Amsterdam map maker Jodocus Hondius. It was published by George Humble in 1627 in 'England Wales Scotland and Ireland described and abridged from a far larger volume done by John Speed'. In fact, this pocket atlas included maps such as this which were not in Speed's volume. Pocket atlases were a cheaper version of the large atlases produced in the 17th century. They demonstrate that the interest in scientific and geographical knowledge was not confined to the richest members of 17th century society.

A map of the eastern part of Scotland by Pieter van den Keere in 1599 and re-issued in Speed's 1627 atlas. Like the six other Scottish maps from this atlas, it comes from the Marischal collection held by the National Library of Scotland. Ranging from Angus to Caithness, the map highlights the burghs and rivers of the Northeast. The rivers are particularly accentuated, giving the coast a jagged appearance. (Note also the use of the Latin term 'flu.', i.e., 'fluvius', for river.) John Speed (1552?-1629), the historian and cartographer, began publishing the 'County maps of England and Wales' in 1603. From 1611 these were published, along with one map of Scotland, as 'The Theatre of the Empire of Great Britain'.

A map of the Hebrides published by George Humble in London in 1627 in England, Wales Scotland and Ireland described by John Speed. It was reprinted in later editions until 1676. The map had been engraved by Pieter van den Keere. In about 1599 Van den Keere had engraved a series of miniature maps based on Saxton's maps which had been published in 1579. These were intended for a pocket atlas which was not published at that time but Humble bought the plates and published them in the 1627 volume. The map is orientated with north to the right and appears to have been based on the outline of Scotland published by Ortelius in 1673. It is delicately coloured with two tones of blue for the sea.

It originally appeared in John Speed's 1627 atlas 'England Wales Scotland and Ireland described' which ran to several editions until 1676. This map is probably based on Speed's 1610 map of Scotland rather than on Keere's work. It differs in several ways from others attributed to him (e.g., spellings, landmarks, draughtsmanship) suggesting that a different cartographer produced it. The map includes the main lochs in shapes similar to Mercator's 1595 map but makes the North-West coast smooth; curiously Glasgow is omitted.

The map's area extends from the Solway Firth to Mull; west is placed at the top. Scaled symbols differentiate castles, burghs and large burghs. Particularly interesting are the locations of several islands (e.g., Iona and Islay), the shapes of others, especially Arran, and the absence of Ayr. The coastline from the Firth of Clyde to Galloway is more irregular than Mercator's 1595 map. Additionally, the Mull of Galloway and Loch Lomond are more akin to Ortelius's 1573 map.

Description
This sketch plan shows properties in Coldstream, Berwickshire. A note on the back identifies this as a map drawn for a legal case between Mark Kerr, Commendator (a lay church officer) of Coldstream, and Alexander Home of Hutounhall and others in 1589. The property under dispute is an croft 'called the orchard' which lies beside the buildings of St Mary's Abbey. The church, cloisters and garden are shown. It is probable that the orchard had belonged to the Abbey before the Reformation. This is an interesting map as it documents the disposal of church property after the Reformation of the mid 16th century. It would appear that at this date the main church buildings and cloisters were intact.

Description
This sketch plan shows properties in Coldstream, Berwickshire. A note on the back identifies this as a map drawn for a legal case between Mark Kerr, Commendator (a lay church officer) of Coldstream, and Alexander Home of Hutounhall and others in 1589. The property under dispute is an croft 'called the orchard' which lies beside the buildings of St Mary's Abbey. The church, cloisters and garden are shown. It is probable that the orchard had belonged to the Abbey before the Reformation. This is an interesting map as it documents the disposal of church property after the Reformation of the mid 16th century. It would appear that at this date the main church buildings and cloisters were intact.
