II. G. FORDHAM—HERTFORDSHIRE MAPS. 
193 
From ‘ Pigot & Co.’s London and Provincial New Commercial 
Directory, For 1826-7.’ Third edition. London and Manchester, 
no date, large 8vo. In the Preface : “ The Yolume is embellished 
with a new series of Elegant Maps of the above-named Counties, 
engraved expressly for the Work, with highly-finished Yignettes.” 
The first edition of this publication appeared in 1822-3, but with¬ 
out maps, and it is assumed that the above (third) edition was the 
first issued with the county maps. 
(Eeprinted in 1832 (c), 1834(c), 1839 (c), and, possibly, at some 
intermediate date, in Pigot’s Directory, and in an atlas, under the 
titles ‘ .British Atlas’ and ‘New British Atlas,’ in 1838 and 1854.) 
1827. Clutterbuck, Robert. 21 x 16£. Scale, about 
miles = 1 inch. Engraved by 1. Cross. 
A map of the county showing in detail the principal and cross 
roads (which are, in fact, the most prominent features), as well as 
the rivers, towns, villages, hamlets, houses, parks, and churches. 
It is in a rather wide and darkly-engraved border, with the degrees 
and minutes of latitude and longitude shown. In the left-hand 
top corner: “A Map of the County of Hertford,” with, below, an 
arrow-head indicator of the north. In the bottom corner on the 
same side of the map is a “ Scale of (10) Statute Miles.” Below 
the margin in the centre : “London. Published 1 st June 1827 by 
I. B. Nichols & Son, Printers, 25 Parliament Street, West¬ 
minster,” and, on the right: “Engraved by I. Cross, 18 Holborn 
Hill.” 
From the third volume of Clutterbuck’s ‘ History and Antiquities 
of the County of Hertford.’ London, 1827, fol. The previous 
volumes were issued in 1815 and 1821 respectively. 
* 1827 (c). Smith, Charles. 20-Ar x 17£. Scale, 
2 miles = inch. Engraved by Jones & Smith, Pentonville. 
Another reprint of Smith’s map of Herts of 1801 and 1804, 
following that of 1821, but “ Corrected to 1827.” 
Probably from an atlas of this date, but I have not been able to 
find a copy. 
* 1828. Cary, John. 21ixl8f Scale, 2J miles = 
1 inch. 
Another unaltered impression of the map of Herts of 1801, with 
the date 1828 inserted. An imprint at the foot of the map is: 
“London Published by J. Cary Engraver and Mapseller No. 86 
S 4 James’s Street Jan? 1st 1828.” I have notes of large maps of 
Devon, Gloucestershire, and Salop, by Cary, of this date, and there 
was, no doubt, an issue of his ‘New English Atlas’ of 1828, but 
1 have not seen a copy. 
* 1829. Capper, Benjamin Pitts. 7 x 4-Ar. Scale, 
8 miles 1= 1 inch. Drawn and engraved by Cooper. 
A reprint of the Hertfordshire map of 1 808, as altered and re¬ 
dated 1824, and published in the ‘Topographical Dictionary’ 
of 1826.
