Historical County Map of Sussex
Scene's of Nelson's Monument and Liverpool are just some of the images that adorn this elegant reproduction of Thomas Moule map of Sussex.
An English county, 70 miles in length, and 20 in breadth; bounded on the S. by the British channel; on the W. by Hampshire; on the N. by Surrey; and on the E. by Kent. It contains 312 parishes, 17 market-towns, and sends 20 members to parliament. The air is often thick and foggy, but not unwholesome, unless it be in the low marshy lands. The soil in the middle is rich and fruitful, which renders the roads deep and dirty in the winter. It is more woody towards Kent, and has several iron mines. The seacoast is high and chalky, being called the Downs, but the seashore is full of banks of sands and rocks..........
