The maps were not actually published with this work but first issued in parts as a separate series between 1804 and 1810 and first appearing in atlas form in The British Atlas published by Vernor Hood & Sharpe (& nine other publishers) in 1810. 

Small margins but a fine hand coloured town plan of Colchester with the arms of Colchester and a vignette of The Entrance Gateway to St. John's Abbey.
