EXPLANATORY REMARKS.
The scale of the Parish Plans is the l-2o00th of the actual length on the
ground, and is equal to 25*344 inches to a mile, which is very approximately
equal to one square inch to one acre, the square of I’OOIS inch being equal to
one acre.
The length of each sheet is 1^ miles, and the width 1 mile, the area of each
sheet is therefore 960 acres.
Each enclosure has a reference number to the area which is given in this Book.
The Braces {f) on the plans are to indicate that the spaces so braced are in¬
cluded under the same reference number.
The Altitudes in feet above the Mean Level of the Sea are written thus—31 '4.
The Scale of the Plans of the County is 6 inches to a mile, and each sheet con¬
tains the same area as 16 sheets of the Parish Plans. There is therefore a double
reference number to each sheet, as VI. 9., the Roman Numerals referring to the
County Plans, the Arabic Figures to the Parish Plans.
The following are the characters employed on the Ordnance Plans on the Scales
of 1-2500, and 6 inches to a mile :—
