Comments on map:
Raymond Frostick's no. 56. In Supplement to Pinnock's Guide to Knowledge [Vol.III], no. CLXXXV, [p.265], 31 July 1835. Printed in 'negative' style, and apparently engraved on wood. Description of Norwich follows on pp 267 ff. Frostick, The printed plans of Norwich, (p.75) suggests that it was copied from the Roper/Cole/British Atlas map [Frostick's no.48, Exeter 18410]: it is certainly reather more 'refined' than the others in this series.
