Acknowledgements
There are numerous books on Exeter, but to paraphrase the words of D’Urban and
Mathew writing over a hundred years ago: Although a work on the [Maps of
Exeter] has already been issued ... , it did not seem so thoroughly to
exhaust the subject as to exclude another which should deal more fully with the
numerous points of interest in the [County of Exeter].[1]
We would like to thank Anne Howard, Local Studies Librarian, of the Westcountry Studies Library in Exeter for her Foreword and are also highly delighted to have Dick Passmore, author of The Story of the Theatre Royal Exeter, write an introduction covering some of Exeter’s history. He has been actively interested in the history of Exeter for many years and kindly agreed to write a brief overview on the city and its growth over 300 years.
We would like to thank the Westcountry Studies Library in Exeter for their help and assistance, without which this book could not have been written. They have given their time and provided illustrations on so many occasions. This book is really dedicated to the all staff of the library.
