Dugdale 1848

Dugdale's England & Wales Delineated, Curiosities of Great Britain

Dugdale's England & Wales Delineated, Curiosities of Great Britain originally used Cole & Roper's 1810 maps, but from 1842/43 it uses maps by J Archer. There is Archer's imprint in the bottom right and a small 14 in the top right, but no Dugdale imprint across the base (unlike in the 1842/43 issue) - making this the 1848 edition.

Scale correct at 15 miles = 53mm, or 7.15 miles/inch, ie 1:450,000.

The railway goes from Witham to Maldon and Braintree (both opened 1848) and from Marks Tey to Sudbury (opened 1849), but does not have Manningtree to Harwich (opened 1854).
