This edition of the map has the London and South Western Railway, LSWR, entering
the county at Farnborough, Rushmoor, via Basingstoke, Winchester to Southampton,
and branches to Andover and into Wiltshire towards Salisbury, to Fareham and
Gosport, to Havant, Portsmouth and to Chichester in West Sussex, to Romsey and
into Wiltshire towards Salisbury, across the New Forest to Ringwood and into
Dorset, from Reading in Berkshire to Basingstoke, from Haslemere in Surrey to
Havant and Portsmouth, into the county near Aldershot, Rushmoor to Alton.

The map includes all railways authorised up to 1853; and a railway authorized in
1853, the London Portsmouth line, but gets its route wrong; it misses a railway
authorized in 1856; I suggest the map belongs to the period 1853-56.
