IOR/L/PS/12/3425, f 115

Printed map with hand drawn additions. The map is signed by Captain Guy Bomford, Royal Engineers, and Superintendent of the Survey of India. A note at bottom of the map states that it was published under the direction of Brigadier Robert Henry Thomas, Surveyor General of India, in 1932. The B.P. referred to in the map’s title stands for boundary pillar. The map indicates: boundaries (international, state, district); railway lines; telegraph lines; roads, tracks, and other paths; hydrology; topography, with some indication of relief and heights expressed in feet; settlements; structures (including forts, watchtowers, mosques); post and telegraph offices. In the bottom left corner of the map is an inset map of Mīrjāwa [Mīrjāveh] (scale: 1:31,680), showing town, river, railways, roads, telegraph line. In the bottom right of the map is the printing statement: ‘Heliozincographed at the Survey of India Offices, Dehra Dūn [Dehradun].’

The map’s hand drawn additions were made by Bomford. They are three additional frontier lines marked on the map, with accompanying key: 1) the Holdich Line, as transferred from the small scale map accompanying Thomas Hungerford Holdich’s agreement, with a correction to the Longitude measurement (blue dashed line); 2) a line considered to be the closest interpretation of the Holdich Agreement (solid blue line); and 3) an alternative interpretation of the Holdich Agreement (gold line). These additions are signed by Bomford.

Two maps that follow on folios 116 and 117 are identical to this map, with the exception that they do not include Bomford’s hand drawn additions.
