A small sketchy map, the size of a playhig card. Shows towns, rivers, 

 and two main roads, one from Salisbury to Exeter, the other from 

 Marlborough to Bath. The border has a double line on the North, East; 

 and South, and a single line on the West. Above the map is a space of 1 

 of an inch, enclosin<^ the title, on the ri{,'ht of which is "VI " and, on 

 the left, a small "6." At the hottom there is a similar space, in which 

 the length, breadth, circumference, and latitude of the county are given ; 

 and the distance from London to Salisbury. 



The set of maps to which this belongs appears to have been made for 

 some kind of game. Some have large lioman numerals in the top 

 right-hand corner, the numbers being duplicated in many instances ; 

 iind others have medallions of men and women, in place of the numerals, 

 and a crown in the centre of the plate.
