Note:
This is the James Wyld reissue of William Faden's original 1807 edition of this map (see our 6388.000), updated in some areas showing the new railroads as of about 1860, hence the date estimated at 1860 - there is no date on the map. A huge map comprising 8 printed sheets, here assembled into four large dissected sheets. This was probably the final edition. Faden had issued a second and possibly third edition before Wyld took over the Faden map business in 1823. Six different scales provided. A compilation based on many reputable sources, as itemized on the South East sheet. Relief shown in hachures.
