[London] : 1755. A most attractive antique map - a depiction of the Southwark and Bermondsey parishes of St. Olave and St. Mary Magdalen - from London Bridge across to Shad Thames, with Tooley Street, "Barnabie" (Bermondsey) Street, Crucifix Lane, Long Lane and parts of Kent Street (now Great Dover Street) and an un-named Grange Road. A numbered key gives the names of seventy-five of the smaller streets, courts and alleys. Although remaining unpublished until 1720, other maps in this series are known to have been originally produced by Richard Blome in the late seventeenth century and the present map may also be his work. The present version was produced for the part-work edition of John Stow's "A Survey of the Cities of London and Westminster" (London : 1754-1757).
