View of the Market Square looking north with the cannon (enclosed by fencing) and drinking fountain (erected Dec 1873 by Captain J W Patterson R.N. in memory of his wife). The Russian gun was a Crimean War Trophy from Sevastopol, presented to the City by Lord Panmure in 1857; it was subsequently moved to the end of Kirkgate opposite the Cathedral in 1896. The drinking fountain was also removed in 1896.
We use a high resolution 50 mega pixel Canon camera, mounted on a Guardian stand, which allows us to capture A0 plans comfortably without losing any clarity or definition. Plans larger than A0 are digitally stitched using Adobe Photoshop by experienced reprographic staff. Images are captured at a minimum resolution of 300dpi as TIFFS using Phase One capture software.
Paper copies at A4 and A3 size are printed on 120gsm high quality matt paper using good quality printing ink.
Paper copies larger than A3 (A2 up to A0) are printed on 170gsm high quality matt coated paper, using UV inks which do not fade or lose colour over time.
