A detailed map of County Kildare, which was produced by Lieut. Alexander Taylor of His Majesty’s 81st Regiment and printed in 1783, was recently acquired by Special Collections & Archives at MU Library. The map contains a dedication to His Grace William Robert, Duke of Leinster, and features two views of the Castle of Maynooth as well as a plan and elevation of an aqueduct over the Grand Canal. It is available for consultation in the Special Collections Reading Room in the JPII Library.
