Description:
|
|
| Uncommon map of Dublin showing the city during a period of enormous expansion. The fact that the mapmaker, William Corbet, could produce multiple updated editions of this map (1812, 1816, 1820, 1826) is a testament to the city's rapid growth. Almost every street is named, as are most important public buildings. [IRE1997] |
