Late 18th century Antique Map of Sussex from the "Supplement to the Antiquities of England and Wales" by Francis Grose Esq F.R.S. published in London between 1773 and 1787. Francis Grose retouched the plates that John Seller used in his "Anglia Contracta" (published in London circa 1697). Seller enlarged the county maps from John Speed's pocket atlas circa 1676.

This finely engraved map appears above quaint contemporary historical information of the County. The engraved map is not exactly aligned with the text.  We offer the complete and very interesting page. Each page is heavy grade paper, from the tall edition of this work.

Map size is 125 x 150mm (5 x 6 inches). Page size is 320 x 240mm (12.5 x 9.5 inches).
