Philips 1890

Philips' Handy Atlas of the Counties of England

The new Parliamentary Divisons of 1885 are separately coloured, but without the green parks/estates of the (much larger) 1885 Philips map. Other examples of this map are 1873, 1882, 1886 and 1895

Scale correct at 10 miles = 30.5mm, or 8.4 miles/inch, ie 1:530,000.

The railway now continues beyond Laindon to Pitsea (opened 1886), as well as Wickford to Southend, Maldon West and Southminster (all opened 1889).
