Notes

Uncommon. A fine example in full original wash colour. The large calligraphic title at the upper right surmounts the ‘Scale of Miles’ and vignette view of the Customs House in Liverpool. A table of explanation towards the bottom left outlines a wealth of topographical detail, including ichnographic representations of the principal towns, villages, churches, gentleman’s seats, commons, heaths and hills, parish and other boundaries, canals, wind and water-mills, roads, lanes, toll-bars and rivers.
