The Road Through Harpenden

by Chris Reynolds

 

Owen & Bowen's Strip Map 1755

This early travellers guide shows the route from St Albans, through Harpenden to Luton and beyond.

The map is virtually identical, apart from the later colouring, to Ogilby's (copying other people's maps was commonplace) and the big difference is the addition of descriptive text about some of the places travelled through.
