Dated 1760 and originally by Emanuel Bowen, it captures Hereford and the surrounding countryside in that beautifully detailed, quietly elegant style that makes old British cartography so enduring. Rich with historic place names, boundaries and period character, it is a lovely choice for local history enthusiasts, country house interiors and anyone wanting wall art with a strong sense of place.
