GENUKI: Ballymachugh Down Survey Map

Ballymachugh Down Survey Map

The Down Survey was done by Sir William Petty in the middle of the 17th century. The map below represents a tracing said to be made from one of his some 2,000 parish maps. The tracings appear to be held in PRONI but the drawing below mas made from a microfilm photostat made at the County Cavan Library.
