Lithographed derivatives were published by John Heywood from 1860. This example can be dated to c.1880 according to the railways depicted and each bears population figures derived from the 1871 census. Provenance: withdrawn for sale from the Metropolitan Borough of Sefton Library 26 May 1977. Carroll (1996) 92.J; Not in Chubb.
