Thomas Dugdale was an antiquarian who was responsible for the Curiosities of Great Britain. The work was issued with two distinct sets of maps. The first utilised those maps from the Cole and Roper atlas of 1810. This second series used a new series of maps engraved by John Archer and was first published in 1842. This is an example with the title replaced by a carefully hand written one. Beresiner pp. 46-7; Carroll no. 112.v.
