KIRBY KENDAL

by Robert Kearsley Dawson

Published 1832

An original 19th century antique town & street plan of Kendal, Cumbria.

 Drawn up by Lieutenant R.K. Dawson of the Royal Engineers and published by the Boundaries Commission in 1832.

The whole country was surveyed for the commission to support the 1832 reform bill - a major shake-up of the nation's parliamentary representation.

The map is on a scale of 4 inches to the mile affording great detail. 

 It's interesting to compare the 19th century map with the much expanded Kendal of the present day.

Enhanced with original colour wash hand colouring and a colour key to the various boundaries and wards.

Fine condition,  blank verso.

Approx. 13" x 7" (330mm x 190mm) overall (as depicted).

A GENUINE ORIGINAL ANTIQUE MAP GUARANTEED OVER 180 YEARS OLD FROM LINDISFARNE PRINTS
