| Title | An East Yorkshire land surveyor: William Watson of Seaton Ross |
| Date | 1973 |
| Abstract | This paper discusses the activities of William Watson (1784-1857), a Yorkshire farmer, land surveyor, map maker and amateur astronomer. It is argued that Watson's family background influenced both the nature and geographical distribution of his early commissions as a land surveyor. The paper describes Watson's work and in particular his large-scale plans of Pocklington and Market Weighton. |
