Seventy-eight drawings of Oxford and the neighbourhood
Seventy-eight drawings of Oxford and the neighbourhood (Cuddesdon, Godstow, Wytham and Iffley); with one of a tree blown down in KenSington Garden, London, in 1816, and a few miscellaneous ones.
The drawings are all by C. Nattes, and sometimes dated 1804 and signed: they are in pencil, but usually heightened with ink, and are of considerable value.
