Historical Map of Devonshire
​Back in Time to 1765

This is a rare and important Wall Map of Devonshire by Benjamin Donn in 1765. Drawn in twelve panels, this map covers the entirety of Devon from the English Channel to Barnstaple (Bideford) Bay and from Cornwall to Somerset at a scale of 1 inch to 1 mile. Donn also incorporates large insets of Exeter (showing the college), Plymouth, Plymouth Dock, Stoke Town, and the Isle of Lundy.
This map is large and with wonderful detail which really cannot be seen on the image below.
It is best to download the larger file to view at your leisure!
