Annotation:Most of the information here pertains to in situ curiosities, such as monuments, architecture, tombs, and natural curiosities. We have included only portable objects that seem to have been part of a larger collection.
Includes appendices of various travel information: post-stages and distances from London; Market towns; tablular summary of “the Principal Matters concerning the present Condition...of England,” a very brief sort of almanac.
