Published in Geographia Magnæ Britanniæ. Or, correct maps of all the counties in Engand Scotland and Wales…S.Birt, T.Osborne,  D.Browne, I.Hodges, I.Osborne, A.Millar and I.Robinson, 1748. There was one further publication of the work by T.Osborne,  D.Browne, J.Hodges, A.Miller, J.Robinson, W.Johnston, P.Davey and B.Law, still dated 1748 but issued in 1756.
Thomas Hutchinson (fl.1733-1754) signed only two of the maps in the series but it is probable that he was responsible for the engraving all the maps. Hutchinson was apprenticed for 7 years to John Senex.  
The maps were not issued again and are uncommon today.
Good hand coloured example.
