Comments on map:
Dated c.1800 by East Riding RO, which seems reasonable. Includes dimensions etc of Mere (only the east end of which appears), which differ from those on the 'Dade' map [Exeter 20452] in being more detailed, e.g. area is 467a. 1r. 30.5p. Watermarked, but apparently not dated. Could this be an original for the 'Dade' map [Exeter 20452]?
