The History of the Map 

This map hails from a first edition of New Maps of England and Wales with part of Scotland (1794) by famed cartographer, John Cary. The map shows Islay and Jura, as well as parts of Scotland’s west coast and Campbeltown peninsula. 

John Cary, Cartographer (1755-1835) 

Cary was internationally renowned for his cartography and undertook some impressive commissions during his life. He was apprenticed in London and set up his own business on The Strand in 1783 as a map seller and engraver. His work included town maps, road maps, globes, and geological maps. 

Before long, Cary had made a great name for himself and was soon tasked with completing some important commissions such as a survey of England’s roads in 1794, and the creation of Ordnance Survey maps. 

New Maps of England and Wales with part of Scotland was published in 1794 and was the first atlas to refer to the Greenwich Meridian.
