*Although very similar to the first edition, the change of address from 3 Burleigh St. to 9 Castle St. places this map after the March 31st, 1837 edition. It is therefore from the next and last known dated issue of Dec. 15th, 1838. Apart from the change of address the colour used for the toadstone (basalt) in Derbyshire, changed from green to brown.
