1 : 31680 The ochre-coloured Roman road, Stane Street, runs from Pulborough at the bottom left of the map to Rudgwick at the top right. Windmills proliferate throughout the area and are represented in elevation. The physical condition of the plan is poor and place names are difficult to read because the manuscript is dirty, worn and ripped. Budgen, Thomas

1 : 31680 A blue watercolour wash has been used here to describe relief, with the summits of hills left bare. Dense forestation in the area is indicated by rashes of small trees. Main communication routes are coloured buff-yellow, conforming to military cartographic convention. A red pecked line describes the county boundary.

A Coloured Chart of the Course of the Rivers Thames and Medway, and of the Coasts of Kent and Sussex to Shoreham, with an Account of the Tides
This manuscript map of the south-east coast of England can be dated to around 1596. Although unsigned the handwriting suggests a possible attribution to [William] Borough who is known for his work as a harbour consultant .The map is concerned with the defence of the Thames and of London itself which was threatened by the Anglo-Spanish war. Raids on transatlantic shipping by English seamen such as Francis Drake and England’s support of the Protestant rebellion in the Spanish ruled Netherlands had induced the Catholic Philip II to plan an invasion of England. Although the Spanish armada was defeated by the English in 1588, England remained at war with Spain for many years and further attempts to invade were made by Philip of Spain. It is thought that this map was drawn between the dispersal of the "second Armada" in October 1596 and the assembly of the third Armada’ in the following spring. The draughtsman has borrowed topographical and hydrographic information from contemporary sources, maps by Symonson and Robert Norman. The careful attention given to the coast line around Rye and the differentiation between the original line of the cliffs and the deposits which created Romney Marsh is striking. [Borough, William]
SOUTHAMPTONIA
This map of Hampshire is from the 1583 edition of the Saxton atlas of England and Wales.This atlas was first published as a whole in 1579. It consists of 35 coloured maps depicting the counties of England and Wales. The atlas is of great significance to British cartography as it set a standard of cartographic representation in Britain and the maps remained the basis for English county mapping, with few exceptions, until after 1750. During the reign of Elizabeth I map use became more common, with many government matters referring to increasingly accurate maps with consistent scales and symbols, made possible by advances in surveying techniques. Illustrating the increasing used of maps in government matters, Lord Burghley, Elizabeth I’s Secretary of State, who had been determined to have England and Wales mapped in detail from the 1550s, selected the cartographer Christopher Saxton to produce a detailed and consistent survey of the country. The financier of the project was Thomas Seckford Master of Requests at the Court of Elizabeth I, whose arms appear, along with the royal crest, on each map. Saxton, Christopher Ryther, Augustine

1 : 21120 This rough triangulation diagram of southern England was draughted in the field to augment the angle and distance measurements recorded in the Ordnance Survey Field Books. Angular observations were made using a theodolite to measure the relative height of the land and plot individual topographical features. Triangulation points were usually at sites elevated above the surrounding landscape, often hilltops and church towers.
