A true relic from the past, this antique map is part of The Large English Atlas: or, a new set of maps of all the counties of England and Wales. Created by renowned cartographers Emanuel Bowen, Thomas Kitchin, and others, this historical piece offers a glimpse into the geographical knowledge and expertise of its time. Measuring an impressive 77 x 58 cm in its original form, this map provides intricate details about the county's towns and villages. From bustling urban centers like Luton and Leighton Buzzard to smaller settlements such as Flitwick and Biggleswade, every corner of Bedfordshire is meticulously depicted on this remarkable artwork. The map also highlights significant landmarks within the county including Sandy, Shefford, Stotfold, Arlesey, Cranfield, Barton-le-Clay, Potton, Toddington Clapham, Wootton, and Bedford itself. With its rich history and diverse geography beautifully illustrated on paper through delicate lines and vibrant colors, this print serves as both an educational resource for historians and a stunning decorative piece for enthusiasts. Preserved at Sheffield Libraries under reference number 912 STF, the County Map of Bedfordshire transports us back in time to an era when cartography was not only functional but also considered an art form.
