BAC : British Art Center has two copies. Copy 1, in which the text and plans have been bound separately, is imperfect: nos. 87-88, back wrapper for no. 64, and plan for no. 84 wanting. Copy 1 has two copies of the plan for no. 83; and has an error in the imposition of letterpress: p. 2-3 of no. 10 has also been printed as p. 2-3 of no. 9. Copy 2 inscribed, on some wrappers, Mr. J.M. Denew. In copy 2 the map vignette on the plan for no. 83 is incorrect; it appears in its correct place in no. 54. There are numerous differences between the plans, and the texts, of the two copies.

BAC : Printed by W. Hill.

Title from covers of parts.

Published in 88 parts, 1838-40. Each part consists of 4 p. text (except nos. 33-34, each of which has 6 p.) and 1 double plan, within paper covers.

The text is tentatively attributed to William Gaspey, and the elevations to [Charles?] Bigot, in the introduction to the London, 1969 edition of the present work.
