A map of the county re-engraved after that of B. R. Davies, 

 described under date 1878 (?), and slightly larger. It contains 

 the same details, except that those outside the boundaries of the 

 county are much more complete. The border is partially broken 

 just north of Ash well, aud also very slightly at North Marston, 

 in Buckinghamshire. The Oreat Northern Railway is carried 

 into the border at Wood Green. Corrections are made in the 

 positions of railway stations, and in the names of railways. 

 The map is ruled-up into squares numbered along the top and 

 bottom, 1 to 9, and lettered at sides, A to G. The title, in the 

 left-hand top corner, now reads : " Bacon's Map of Hertford- 

 shire revised throughout by the New Ordnance Survey, Divided 

 into 5 mile squares ", with, below, a scale of " English miles, 

 691 = 1 Degree ", and, again below : " References ", extending to 

 a considerable number of details. Against the border on the 

 right-hand side of the map is a slightly-drawn indicator of the 

 points of the compass, and, in the right-hand bottom corner : 

 " Note — The official names of Railway Stations are all engraved 

 in a special chai-acter, thus, Liudgate, except Avhere indicated 

 by the name of the town being in bold letters, aud identical with 

 the name of the Station." Below the map, outside the left- 

 hand bottom corner : " G. W. Bacon & C"., Ltd., 127 Strand, 

 Loudon." 



This appears to be from another issue of Bacon's pocket county 

 maps for cyclists and tourists, which have been published 

 annually for the last ten or twelve years, corrected and amended 

 from time to time.
