Scope and content

Red hardback notebook for the 1st edition of the Burren map. Contains an indexing system that corresponds to the annotations Robinson has made on Ordnance Survey maps (see P120/3/2/1/1). The indexes include megalithic tombs, pre-historic forts and dolmens that correspond to T J Westropp's work, forts and dolmens not described by Westropp, peel towers, map sketches of towns, sketches of flora, sketches of carvings, and lists of cooking sites.

Box of index cards with 307 numbered cards, each assigned to a townland in the Burren. The cards begin in Ballyvaughan, and continue South ending up in Tulla. These cards are not as detailed as the placename index for the Aran Islands and Connemara (P120/1). Some of the cards contain summary information about a holy well or another feature Robinson wished to remember. The numbers do not correspond to the notebook.
