It was created by John Speed and engraved by Jodocus Hondius, and originally published in Speed's \"The Theatre of the Empire of Great Britaine\".\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThis map looks great at all sizes: 12x16 inches (31x41cm), 18x24 inches (45.5x61cm) and 24x36 inches (61x91.5cm), but it looks even better when printed large.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eI can create beautiful, large prints of this map up to 60x80 inches (150x200cm).

In the top right corner is a detailed engraving of Bath, then (and still) the capital of this ancient county.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eMost of Somerset's most populous towns and cities have already popped into existence by the 1600.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eSome of the towns, villages and places clearly visible in this old map of the county of Somerset include: Bath, Portishead, Bristol, Weston-super-Mare, Taunton, Yeovil, Frome, Bridgwater, Clevedon, Glastonbury, Chard, Longleat, Wells and many more. But of course, many of them are spelt in their Early Modern English forms.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eTake a look at the detailed images and try to spot your hometown!

The frame is a nice, simple black frame that suits most aesthetics. Please get in touch if you'd like a different frame colour or material. My frames are glazed with super-clear museum-grade acrylic (perspex\/acrylite), which is significantly less reflective than glass, safer, and will always arrive in perfect condition.\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"The Unique Maps Co.","offers":[{"title":"12x16in (30x40cm) \/
