A Mapp of Devonshire with its Hundreds. Original antique map by Richard Blome. Published in 1673.

Richard Blome (1635–1705) was an engraver, cartographer, and publisher in the Kingdom of England

He published “Britannia, or a Geographical Description of the Kingdom of England, Scotland and Ireland”

Britannia was Richard’s Blome major work which included an interesting series of engraved maps of the counties and other parts of the British Isles. It was possible to subscribe to the work and depending upon the size of your financial commitment you could have a dedication to yourself with coat of arms on one o the maps. If you felt like paying rather less you could still immortalise yourself by having your coat of arms appear on one of the many additional pages.
