- The guard which remains attached to the [location] of this drawing indicates that it was formerly laid down on a secondary support, as were many of the drawings of the group DR1981:0017:001 R/V - DR1981:0017:079 R/V. A repair has been made at the l.l. corner, where part of the inscription is missing.

inscribed - by the draughtsman, in pen and brown ink, u.c.: "Argine / FIVME MONTONE / Sboratore"; l.l.: "Pianta che mostra come si deve formare la chiavica, et / sboratore sopra il canale del Molino Vecchio, [per] servirsi / dell'acqua del fiume Montone, [per] fare maccinare il d:o / Molino, nella qual fabrica si spendera scudi n.o 650 / [trimmed]...[t]re si faccia di nuovo la compera di tutta la matteria" numbered - by a contemporary hand, in pen and brown ink, l.r.: "53"
