Snowdonia

The file comprises proofs of Snowdonia published in 1987 and four small notebooks, entitled 'Snowdonia National Park', 'Snowdonia 2', 'Eryru (sic)', and 'Meadows', which together formed the foundation of the book, containing bibliographic references, historical notes, public access and routes by footpath or road for visitors to the Snowdonia National Park, geology, mining history, notes for preparation of the gazetteer and the selection of photographs to accompany the text, birds and plants, including detailed notes on Woodsias and their propagation, mountain railways and descriptions of places of outstanding scenery, with dates when various sites were visited by Condry, 1984-1985. All four notebooks contain similar material; the title of the last one,`Meadows', may be inapplicable.

'Woodsia'

The file comprises material almost exclusively concerned with alpine ferns in North Wales, including a typescript draft of an article by Condry, entitled 'Two Rare Ferns of Snowdonia', index cards and loose notes on their identification, sites and altitudes, extracts from literary sources, printed and photocopied articles, relevant letters and enclosures, with occasional copies of Condry's replies. The correspondents inclue Peter Benoit (1), 1983, Arthur Chater (4) 1985-1992, Dafydd Davies (14) 1985-1993, enclosing hand-copied extracts from J. Lloyd Williams' descriptions of Woodsia and Trichomanes, Jack Grasse (1), 1985, Dewi Jones (38), 1985-1996, expressing interest in the diaries of Mary Richards, Derek Ratcliffe (1), 1984, and Richard (Dick) H.
