Corby
This drawing covers part of south-west Lincolnshire centred on Corby (now known as Corby Glen), the northern part of Rutland, and a small part of east Leicestershire. Their boundaries are indicated by a red pecked line. The road running down the middle of the sheet is Ermine Street, the ancient Roman road from London to York, passing through Lincolnshire. Right of centre is Grimsthorpe Park, with its avenues, trees, reservoir and lodge painstakingly illustrated.
