Scanned extract from a Macfarlane's Catalogue of the drawing used to illustrate the cast-iron weathervane (Terminal No. 207) used on the onion dome at Dolobran. The terminal has a total height of 11' 0" (3.35m) and is capped with a fine cast iron rooster which rotates on the apex of the terminal. The terminal is held onto the copper clad finial of the onion dome with a long hold down bolt. The hold down bolt is secured through the base of the terminal with a cross bolt and is fixed to the timber structure, much lower down, inside the dome. The terminal was identified during the 'recent' restoration of the onion dome.
