These valuable maps are very detailed, being 6″ to a mile scale. Very detailed they also have the jottings and added work markings of the surveyor/engineer responsible for installing the telegraph/telephone network.
Some show the exact trajectory of each of the numbered poles to be installed. Also, there are fine details of farms, buildings, smithies, public houses, wells etc clearly named on most of the maps.
The first sample of how we will be mounting and putting them out for sale is seen in the two images above.
As expected they have signs that betray their age.
It is likely they will retail for £40 each plus a tracked courier charge of £7.40
If you are interested in any particular location or area please send precise details and we will look through the collection. This first one is obviously of Tregaron.
