Old Map of London, 1746 by John Rocque - B2 - Buckingham Palace, Soho, Westminster, Mayfair, Piccadilly, Green Park, Regents Street bath My prints of this mapThis is the greatest old map of London ever created. Put together by surveyor and cartographer John Rocque and engraver John Pine in 1746, this map has an incredible level of detail. The cities of London and Westminster are already quite developed, but south of the river in Southwark, Lambeth and Lewisham it's still mostly fields. This map was originally published in 24 sheets. The map shown here is sheet 10, focusing on Buckingham Palace, Green Park
