A superb example of the Homann Heirs map of London's environs, with a prospect of London and Westminster underneath. Extending north to south from Luton to Tadworth and east to west from Rayleigh to Maidenhead, many of the isolated villages and towns shown are now incorporated into the urban sprawl of London and live on only in name.
