| Rivers |
Morden's map shows a number of rivers; some of them are named.
All of Hampshire's major rivers are shown, but there are some
little streams shown which might have been left out, and some
not shown which might have been included. The style of drawing of rivers is schematic. The width of the engraved lines decreases as you go up, but not to match the rivers true size [as judged today], and although braiding is indicated it is not an exact match to the rivers [today's] courses. The rivers that are shown can mostly be indentified, but with a degree of guesswork because accuracy is not all it could be on the map! |
