Locates numerous towns and villages, especially along the coastline, with forests and lakes and mountains filling the interior. The map is elaborately decorated with a scene of Neptune embracing a woman, a divider and compass rose. Saxton and Hole's imprint appears below the distance scale. Published in the 1637 edition of Camden's Britannia, with the addition of a plate number on the map.
