Crafted by eminent cartographers Emanuel Bowen, Thomas Kitchin, and others, it offers a comprehensive depiction of Essex's geographical features during that era. With intricate details and precision, the map highlights prominent towns such as Southend-on-Sea, Colchester, Chelmsford, Basildon, Rayleigh, and South Benfleet.
