Speed's decorative map of Northumberland features bird's-eye plans of Berwick and Newcastle with keys identifying important locations. There is excellent detail in the map, including Hadrian's Wall, which is labeled as the Pictes Wall. To the left of the map are the coats of arms of important people in the county, and to the right are renderings of Roman antiquities. The imprint of Bassett and Chiswell is at bottom. English text on verso.
