In a cupboard in Apsley House on Wellington St. It`s 6`6" x 2`4" and has wording on the outside Kelvinside Estate and added in 1945, With Mr George G. Paton`s notes. I will post the additional note that came with the map.

Brilliant find, Scary, perhaps Mr. Fjord was offering his services?
I would dearly love to have the whole thing in hi-res.

No probs Scary I'll scan it and give it the old photoshop treatment then post it up here for folks perusal.

We'll figure out getting it picked up in due course
