This scarce little map covers the southeastern part of England with an oval inset of London. The various ferry routes are shown and distances on the roads are noted. The map also includes the locations of battlefields, castles, and bathing-places. The map is surrounded in a wide floral border with no outside blank margins. The map is a very early example of printed color.
