The file consists of correspondence and papers, 1985, concerning the proposed acquisition of a parcel of land from Mr Ivor Idris for the creation of a car parking area on the lower slopes of Cadair Idris under the auspices of the National Parks Authority.

The file includes information regarding the designation of Snowdonia and the Pembrokeshire Coast as national parks, the aftermath of the Second World War and the development of hydro-electric schemes in North Wales.

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.
