A truly superb, accurate and informative ordnance survey map of the county of Kent, together with the eastern regions of both Surrey and Sussex. The map is neatly dissected into 24 linen backed squares, and conveys an extraordinary amount of depth and detail to the regions that it covers. Parks, stately homes, roads, rivers, lakes, railways, copses, forests and woodlands are all rendered in the finest detail. This map is the South Eastern section of an original 4 sheet map, entitled "Forty Miles around London". The extent of the map is from Tunbridge Wells in the south to Godstone in the west to Lenham in the east to Darent in the north. The map was published by Colonel Mudge, and engraved by Benjamin Baker and Assistants. Size: 655 x 1000 mm. Fine condition.
