54.     Freeman II                                                                             1887 (C11th)


In 1887 the history of Exeter by Edward Augustus Freeman appeared as one of the Historic Towns series edited by Freeman and the Rev. William Hunt.

The first map is shown in the previous entry and besides the map included below, Freeman´s work contained small reproductions of both Braun and Hogenberg (3) and a copy of Daniel Lysons´ representation of the very early manuscript map of Henry VIII (see Lysons, 19). 

Title: EXETER in the ELEVENTH CENTURY.

Size: 135 x 85 mm with Scale (1/2 mile = 35 mm).

Signature: Stanford’s Geogl Estabt and imprint:

London: Longmans & Co. 

Simply hachured map showing the main roads and walls. This is very similar to the plan included by Kerslake (46) and is found in Historic Towns – Exeter by Edward A Freeman (see also 53).
