1748.
The "Board of Ordnance Register of Plans 1700-1800" lists two originals by Paul Sandby under this code. There is a copy of this at shelfmark MS.1648.Z.03/28e, which has been signed by Paul Sandby, which is one of the two, and it is likely that this is a contemporary copy done by Sandby, and is the second 'original'. There is also a report on the state of the castles, by David Watson, at shelfmark MS.1648.Z.03/28f, which accompanies one or both of these sheets.
This sheet is divided longitudinally into two equal panels. The left hand side panel contains a plan of Tioram Castle, and a view from the north east. The right hand side panel is then divided into one main upper panel, containing the plan of Duart Castle, and two lower panels containing views of Castle Duart from the east and from the south.
In top right hand corner of right hand panel: library shelfmark written in ink.
At top of right hand panel: title and date, written in ink, and below, scale bar graded [0]-10-120 [feet], with below scale, list of code letters and names of features on plan of Duart Castle to which they refer.
In middle of right hand panel: "B.O" with upwards arrow, stamped in red.
At top of left hand panel: written in ink, scale statement "Scale of 40 Feet to an Inch", with 50.8 mm. scale bar graded [0]-[5]-10-20-80.
