UNIVERSI Derbiensis Comitatus Sheet 25

This map ofDerbyshire 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

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.

Sudbury Park

1 : 31680 The county boundary of Derbyshire and Staffordshire is indicated by a red pecked line. The boundary closely follows the River Dove. In the margins of the drawing several dots annotated with place names indicate observation stations. This is where the surveyor stood to take triangulation measurements. No indications of relief are given, suggesting that this is an outline plan, the midpoint between the original protraction and the finished drawing. The road network is precisely delineated. Major communication routes are coloured yellow, following military cartographic convention. Stevens, Henry
