A clearly-drawn map showing the usual details, with hill¬ 
shading along the Chalk Downs in the north of the county, and 
the “London and Birmingham”, and “Northern and Eastern” 
railways, with the Hertford branch of the latter. It has a plain, 
double-ruled border, showing the degrees and minutes of latitude 
and longitude, with, outside, at the top right-hand corner, a small 
number 18, and, below the map, in the centre: “Engraved for 
Dugdale’s England and Wales Delineated”, and, on the right: 
“ Drawn and Engraved by J. Archer, Pentonville, London.” In 
the left-hand top corner: “Hertfordshire”, and, below, a scale of 
miles. In the right-hand top corner, numbered to correspond with 
numbers on the map, a list of the hundreds in a single column, 
and, in the bottom corner on the same side of the map, an “Ex¬ 
planation”. In the bottom border : “ Meridian of Greenwich”.

and Wales Delineated,’ London, 8vo, Avhieh were published un¬

particular state of the set of maps of the above date. But, as the 
railways shown on the map were opened respectively in 1838 and 
18-10, the latter date seems a probable one. A copy in my library 
referred to under date 1843, has Boper's maps. 
At least three other states of this map exist, two of them being 
described under the dates 1850 and 1860. There seems to have
