An ordnance survey map covering Bassenthwaite Lake and Lorton, 1863, E.R. James, engraved 1865, published 1867, scale 6 inch-1 mile. CONDITION REPORT: The map is linen backed. There is a very small tear to the front right edge which should be noticeable on our web image. One quarter of the corners to the bottom right and top right are slightly folded, the remaining corners appear to be undamaged. Once the map is open, two thirds of the map are a uniform colour and just slightly over a third is a lighter cream colour. This is visible where it appears the map has been overlaid. There is an overshoot of the lettering at the top. There are holes in the linen joins at the corners but nothing too drastic. There appears to be mould and staining on two of the left hand side folds and bottom corner. The top left hand corner has a small fold. The backing is an off white clean uniform colour throughout but there is dark staining around the edges of each fold. There are a few dirt spots throughout but nothing that interferes with the map. This staining may be visible to see if you look at our website illustration.
