A seven-volume topographical survey of British antiquities issued in London from 1815 by the engraver James Storer with Greig, made for antiquaries and subscribers collecting views of ruined abbeys, castles, churches and old houses. The plates are small copperplate landscape views, densely hatched, with ruined walls, gatehouses and church exteriors set among trees, figures and grazing animals, each captioned in engraved script below the image; useful for ruin silhouettes, foliage texture and engraved caption lettering.
