Comments on map:

Recorded from photocopy of p.13 in Pictures of Old Southport [shelfmark S.V. 942.72 S]; only included here on grounds of scale and date, and by comparison with Legh 1824 [Exeter 20054] pretty uninformative. The caption says that it is dated 1827, and original is in private hands: the date could be lost in the pretty poor 'reproduction'.
