THE ENVIRONS OF LONDON

£120

Attractive large originally coloured map published by W.H.Smith in 1880.

A nicely detailed Victorian map of the whole of the Greater London area on a scale of one-inch to the mile - extending east-west from Chadwell Heath to Windsor, and north-south from Potters Bar to Ashstead. Advertised as "very suitable for pedestrians", the map pays particular attention to railway stations and footpaths. Undated, but evidently completed shortly after the extension of the Metropolitan Line to Harrow.

Reinforcement on some folds on back otherwise very good condition.
