  Banfield 5 The Reverend Tugwell's North Devon Handbook was written c.1855 (last date in text concerning funds to build a new church, p.7) and first appeared c.1857 with a map (Banfield 5, below) executed by W Gauci of London which is dated 1856. It was possibly commissioned by Banfield as his name appeared on the cover of the second edition. This must have appeared c.1863 as there is a reference to a new wing of the North Devon Infirmary opening in September of that year (p.17). There was a preface to each volume but undated. When the fourth edition appeared c.1877 the prefaces to the first and second editions were included and are now dated. The first preface has a date of 1857, the second 1860 and the preface to the fourth edition is dated 1877. This back-dating was obviously incorrect as far as the second edition is concerned.

  Banfield 3 Size: 205 x 350 mm. No scale. 1. 1844   A MAP OF THE NORTH OF DEVON Engraved For BANFIELD'S Guide to Ilfracombe.  There is no imprint or signature. The key (Aa) lists six different categories of roads. The map extends from just below Hartland to a point just east of Oare, with Barnstaple more or less at the centre.
