Hand-coloured Geological Survey of England and Wales Sheet LXXXIII NE, covering the Worksop, Bawtry and East Retford areas, on a scale of One Inch to One Statute Mile.

 

The map was geologically surveyed by W.T. Aveline A.H. Green, T.V. Holmes and Sir Andrew Crombie Ramsay, thereafter published in 1861 by the famous geologists and Sir Roderick Impey Murchison.

 

The map incorporates the embossed stamp of the Ordnance Survey at the top centre, with the stamps of Pawson and Brailsford, Map Agents, and J.W. Ormiston & Sons, Mining Consultants towards the bottom right corners.

 

It is printed on thick parchment type paper. The map itself measures approximately 36cm by 29cm with titles, notes and scale bar on the wide margins. The whole sheet measures approximately 58cm x 42cm and is in very good condition for its age (see photos).

 

It is ideal for framing and would be of interest to local historians/collectors.
