'Walbrook Ward and Dowgate Ward with their Divisions into Parishes according to a New Survey' - copper engraved antique plan/print published 1756

Engraved by Benjamin Cole in 1755 and published in William Maitland's 'History of London' in 1756

Vignette views of Parish Churches: St.Stephen in Walbrook and St.Michael of Royal College Hill 

Printed on soft cream hand laid paper.  Slightly 'nibbled' edges and corners,  But this would look splendid in a simple dark picture frame!
