Coastal maps of Essex

The table below lists coastal maps of Essex in approximately chronological order; these are taken from Atlases, or in a few cases were published as maps of Essex alone. There is a link from each entry to a large picture.

The dimensions against each map are Height x Width. The measurements are of the outermost neat line of the map (not the size of the sheet of paper).
