PHOTOGRAPHIC SURVEY OF WARWICKSHIRE. Mar., 1890 . 
It will be similar in size and price to the old one-inch map. 
We can hardly expect to have this map for Warwickshire for 
a period of several years. 
(c.) The Six-Inch Ordnance Map.— This is the ideal map 
for the work of a photo-survey. Its large scale (six inches 
to every mile) allows every field, and even every tree, to be 
depicted. The orientation of buildings is clearly shown, so 
that the photographer can see beforehand when the light 
will fall suitably upon any building, ruin, etc., that he may 
have to travel a long distance to photograph. The issue of 
the Warwickshire map on this scale is very nearly complete. 
The county is contained in 200 quarter-sheets, each measur¬ 
ing 18in. by 12in., and including six square miles. They 
are sold at one shilling each, and 195 have been published. 
(d.) The Parish Maps are on the still larger scale of 
twenty-five inches to a mile. Four of these parish maps 
contain an area equal to one quarter sheet of the six-inch 
map. Each parish map measures 38in. by 25^in., and con¬ 
tains an area of a little more than 1^ square miles. These 
also are all but complete for Warwickshire; and in some 
cases, as in Stratford, the ruins of Kenilworth, etc., they will 
be very useful to the photo-surveyor. 
(e.) Lastly, there are the town plans, on the scale of 
125 inches to a mile. 
Plan now Proposed for the Photo-Survey of Warwickshire. 
1. —A committee must be appointed by whom the details 
of the plan can be formulated. 
2. —The maps of the county on the six-incli scale must 
be purchased. For each sheet of the map there must also 
be a light cardboard box* bearing the same number as the 
map. In this box, mounted prints of all the photographs 
taken from objects contained in that sheet of the map 
should be kept. 
A similarly numbered set of negative boxes f would be 
needed to contain the negatives belonging to each sheet of 
the map. 
3. —All photographers who would be willing to place 
their services at the disposal of the society should send their 
names (in pairs if preferred) to the committee. 
4. —The committee would decide on a certain patch of 
country to be surveyed—say that included on twelve sheets of 
* Those sold for holding pamphlets, papers, etc., by Stone, of 
Banbury, would answer well for this purpose. 
f Those made by Arundel and Marshall, Penn Street Works, 
Hoxton, London, are recommended.
