I’ve avoided collecting small-scale maps but this is the best map in my collection … it’s a work of art. Every feature was hand-engraved onto a copper plate, in reverse. This poor photo doesn’t do it justice. For a closer look, follow this link to the scanned copy held by the National Library of Scotland:

There’s a slightly odd cartographic mystery on sheet 11. If you look in the south eastern corner, below Southsea and Hayling Island, the neat line (map border) isn’t present. It is as if the finely engraved lines representing the sea have been allowed to spill out of the map slightly. There seems to be no cogent reason for it …

It was a great day for walking.
