This large-scale map of Durham is drawn at the scale of three quarters of an inch to a mile. It was first published here c.1839. Two ensuing issues were published in 1840 both dated. There are only three earlier large-scale printed maps of the county; the exceedingly rare Christopher Maire of 1711, Andrew Armstrong in 1768 and Christopher Greenwood’s in 1820. This map was published by Thomas Malby (1781-1854) who were largely globemakers and chart publishers for the Admiralty. The map details all of the railways and tram ways. A rare map in its first state. Rodger (1972) 105; Tooley (1986) refer no. DV18; Worms & Baynton-Williams (2011).
