Old Map of Bristol in 1750 by John Rocque - Clifton, Kingsdown, Redcliffe, Cathedral City Chart london the father of British cartographyThis old map of Bristol in 1750 is another masterpiece created by John Rocque, who surveyed, drew and published this map. Around the edge of the map are 10 engravings of famous Bristol landmarks or at least, they were important landmarks in 1750! This is a lovely map from a time when many of Bristol's historic streets had already been laid down, but the town itself was still quite small and rural.
