                            These seem to be the second (Monmouth to Tintern) and third (Tintern to Chepstow) volumes in Heath's 'Excursion down the Wye from Ross to Chepstow', the first volume covered his excursion from Ross to Monmouth. As well as details of the walk from Monmouth to Tintern and by boat from Tintern to Chepstow, they contain essays on and about Tintern and Chepstow and their neighbourhoods and even continuing on by road via Westbury (on Trym) to Bristol. Heath was a printer in Monmouth.
