Description

Title: EAST COAST OF ENGLAND & THAMES ESTUARY from London to the Nore.COLLINS 1693 map

Description: [East Coast of England from Dover to the Humber]. Inset: The River of Thames from London to the Buoy of the Noure - To the Right Worppll the Master and Wardens of the Trinity House of Deptford Strond this mapp is most humbly dedicated and presented by Capt. G. Collins by Captain Greenvile (or Greenville) Collins. Collins was an officer of the Royal Navy and prominent hydrographer, who was commissioned by King Charles II in 1676 and appointed by Samuel Pepys (then Secretary to the Admiralty), to chart the coasts of Great Britain. The resulting atlas - Great Britain's Coasting Pilot - was the first original sea atlas to be produced by an Englishman. Prior to publication of these maps, nautical charts were often defective, and there was no centralised system for collecting and disseminating the better maps made by experienced seamen. In 1681, Collins gained the king's preferment to survey the country's coasts. The Admiralty supplied Collins with the 8-gun yacht HMS Merlin for the first two years and later the yacht HMS Monmouth until 1686. His work was carried out under the supervision of Trinity House, who also supported the project financially. Samuel Pepys insisted that Collins be made a younger brother of Trinity House. Collins spent seven years on the survey, the first edition of which was published in 1693, as "Great Britain's Coasting Pilot". The charts, while not completely accurate, were an enormous advance on anything before them, entitling Collins to rank as not only one of the earliest, but also among the best of English hydrographers. Twenty-one further editions were published during the eighteenth century. (1693 (First edition)). Decorative antique eighteenth century copperplate nautical sea chart, printed on thick paper. Two sheets conjoined, 59.5 x 95.5cm, 23.5 x 37.75 inches; Please note that this is a folding map.
This magnificent sea chart shows (orientated towards the west) the east coast of England from Dover to the Humber, including the coastlines of north Kent, Essex, Suffolk, Norfolk and Lincolnshire. Inset at the top and orientated towards the south is a plan of the Thames Estuary from London to the Nore sandbank. Many towns and villages are shown along the coast, together with sandbanks and other offshore features.
