Antique Town Map and Street Plan
SUDBURY
by Robert Kearsley Dawson
Published 1832
An original 19th century antique plan of Sudbury, Suffolk, England.
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 upper map is on a scale of 1 inch to the mile, the lower, 4 inches to a mile.
There is much detail here including individual buildings, and it's interesting to compare the 19th century town with the much expanded Sudbury of the present day.
Enhanced with original outline hand colouring and a key to the various boundaries.
Fine, clean condition free of repairs or restoration, blank verso.
Approx. 13" x 8" (330mm x 200mm) overall.
A GENUINE ORIGINAL ANTIQUE MAP GUARANTEED OVER 180 YEARS OLD FROM LINDISFARNE PRINTS
