笔记
Large and detailed plan of early eighteenth century London.
The plan bears grid lines for ease of reference; the title appears to the right of the plan in a fine cartouche. Many of the most prominent public buildings are shown in elevation, including Lincoln's Inn, St Paul's, Temple, Somerset House, and Burlington House. The plan shows much of the new West End development including Grosvenor Square, Mount Street, and Cavendish Square. Below the plan is a description of London, watermen and hackney coach rates, and a list of important public buildings and streets with their grid reference. The rates for watermen are given for both 'oars' (a two man boat) or Sculls (single man); the hackney cabs are said to number 800 and are allowed to "Ply in London" and "Bills of Mortality", all licenced cabs bear a number on the coach door.
This edition appears in Joseph Smith's edition of the 'Nouveau Theatre de la Grande Bretagne', Vol. III, the title page of which bears the date 1724.
Scale: 10 inches to 1 statute mile.
