Tallis Topographical Dictionary

Tallis Topographical Dictionary: "The details and maps in this on-line gazetteer are extracted from the 19th century six-volume edition of Tallis's Topographical Dictionary of England and Wales, which I acquired in February 2002 from Hay Castle Bookshop of Hay-on-Wye, Breconshire. This monumental work was edited by E. L. Blanchard, and published in 1860 by L. Tallis of 21 Warwick Square, Paternoster Row, London. The volumes were bound by Bone & Son, of 17 Fleet Street, London and originally sold for 7/6 (seven shillings and sixpence) per volume."
