This map was produced by William Smith for his second atlas of geological maps of the counties of England. It was published by John Cary in September 1819.

There are 21 individual county maps available for purchase. William Smith's County Maps were originally published in six atlases, each with four maps in. William Smith had intended to continue publishing further atlases continuing the series, however the burden of bearing the costs of the publication of these maps along with his geological sections lead to large debts and a spell in a debtors prison.

A range of map prints are available from the Society Library
