Abstract

An assessment was undertaken in April 2000 of the contents of the notebooks of Thomas
Telford, consultant engineer for the Holyhead road, and John Provis, resident engineer for the
road. In total, two Telford notebooks held by the Institute of Civil Engineers were reviewed,
as were three Provis notebooks, which were in the private possession of Mr Frank Newby of
Chiswick, London. In Mr Newby's collection there were three further notebooks, which were
signed off by John Wilson, that related to the construction of the Holyhead Road.
