Interpret Wales Maps for Interpretation Frank Olding Heritage Officer Blaenau Gwent County Borough Council

Maps and Plans Reading maps and plans is not instinctive; Maps and plans have a language of their own; Reading maps and plans is a skill that’s why they teach GEOGRAPHY in school!!! For example...

Which tells us more the map or the photo?

Archaeologists LOVE drawing plans...

Total Station

Hachured plan – analyses the earthworks

Horses for courses – maps are a good source of evidence.

Marquis of Abergavenny Estate Survey 1819

Sale Particulars 1872

R. M. A. Regressive Map Analysis Looking at old maps! A very useful tool for gathering and presenting evidence Not so useful for interpreting to the paying public!!!

Beaufort Ironworks – 1 st Ed OS, 1880

GIS systems

Nantyglo Roundhouses How much information does this convey to the visitor?

Cadw’s “buff” guides... award-winning guidebooks... for a very good reason!

1203 – wooden castle rebuilt in stone

1230 – Hubert de Burgh’s new curtain wall and towers

1350 – the Earl of Lancaster’s fortress-cum-palace

Even more important for industrial sites...

An industrial archaeologist’s idea of an “interpretative plan”!!

Aerial photos are great for landscapes. Garnddyrys Forge

Happy Ramblers!!!
