City of Bath Heraldic Society Heraldry in Glamorgan, etc.
Our
member in Wales, Anthony L. Jones FHS, has produced a comprehensive
guide to the heraldry visible in churches, castles and manor houses
throughout the historic county of Glamorgan. This was originally
published as Heraldry in Glamorgan in 26 volumes, but the whole collection
is now available in digital media as part of the Heraldry Society's
Heraldry
Archive project. Each volume is a
separate Portable Document Format (PDF) file - a facsimile of the
original, but with readable text, so that you can search it and copy it
as well as read it.
In addition, Tony has prepared an impressive set of colour plates illustrating the heraldry of the county, and of the whole Principality. Other plates illustrate the heraldry of key mediaeval battles, monasteries, prime ministers, and more besides. Several of these plates have been inserted into the Heraldry in Glamorgan pages, where relevant, but we have also grouped the whole collection of about fifty plates into themes, and loaded them onto the disk under the title Armorial Paintings.
To browse the detailed content of these collections, click one of the links below. To purchase on disk or USB flash drive, send a cheque to the Hon. Treasurer for £20, or buy it at one of our meetings.
The disk will run in Microsoft Windows, and needs a web browser (Internet Explorer, Opera, Firefox, Netscape, etc.), with Adobe Reader
