Pre-1770 Hand-Drawn Map of Ballybofey and Stranorlar, Co. Donegal
Black-and-white, hand-drawn map of the adjacent towns of Ballybofey and Stranorlar, Co. Donegal. The river Finn ('Finn Water') divides both towns. The plots of land let to tenants are numbered, as are their rows of houses. The 'big houses' of the landed gentry, prominent with their double storeys and many chimneys, are drawn, as are the surrounding trees. The main roads in and out of the area are marked. The bridge over the Finn is outlined, as is the bridge connecting Lifford, Co. Donegal, to Strabane in Co. Tyrone.
