Merritt, 'The Creation of Strype's Survey of London', in Strype, Survey of London (1720), hriOnline, Sheffield, 2007).
Provenance: William Cowper (1690-1740, of Hertingfordbury Park), bookplate. Cowper was appointed Clerk of the Parliaments in 1712, retaining the position until the end of his life.
