|
|
Great Map of Hampshire, scale about 5 inches to 1 mile, projected series in
many sheets, by Nathaniel Lipscomb Kentish, Kingsgate Street, Winchester, about
1823.
|
|
Only one sheet in this series is known(?), sheet 36 south of Winchester; it is
believed this is a trial sheet for a project which never found subscriptions to
support its costs, the scale of the project, about 1 to 13000, about 5 inches to
1 mile, was too ambitious. |
