Digital Plans Arrive

At the end of 2015 we received digital copies of the 1901 to 1903 drawings, which are works of art in there own rights, and you can even see the changes drawn on the plans and the dates these were made.  The plans we are working from are of here sister ship the HMS Antrim and as far as we know these are the only plans of this class of ships in existence.

Due to copyright regulations I have been allowed to include in this post a very small section taken from one of the drawings.

There are plans to display the printed versions of these drawings along side the completed model.  For more details about this or for further information please see the Useful Links page and contact the Birsay Trust through the website or facebook page.
