In addition to the History of Framlingham the public is indebted to the late Mr. Loder, of Woodbridge for all that has yet appeared respecting the latter town.

"The Statutes and Ordinances for the Government of the Almshouses in Woodbridge, in the County of Suffolk, founded by Thomas Seckford, Esq.

Woodbridge Terrier, exhibiting an Account of all the Charities in that Town, with Notes by R. Loder. Woodbridge, 1787." 4to.. In 1771, the late Mr. Ives, whose devotion to antiquities, and topography, must render his premature decease a subject of regret to the lover ot those studies, issued anonymous proposals for publishing a topographical History of the Hundred of Lothingland, in which his father possessed large property. To obtain the necessary information he circulated a list of queries among the clergy and inhabitants, and had several plates of arms and sepulchral monuments engraved; but his plan never arrived at maturity. Three years afterwards, however, he presented to the public :

"Remarks upon the Garianonum of the Romans: the site and remains fixed and described. By John Ives, Esq. F. R. S. and F. A. S. London, 1774." 12mo. with a south view of Garianonum; the ichnography, two plates; map of the river Yare copied from an an

cient original in the corporation chest at Yarmouth, and an inscription on the mantle-tree of a farm-house-A second edition "with some slight remarks" also a portrait and account of the author was printed at Yarmouth in 1803.

"An Historical Account of the Ancient Town of Lowestoft, in the County of Suffolk. To which are added some cursory Remarks on the adjoining Parishes, and a General Account of the Island of Lothingland. By Edmund Gillingwater. London, 1790." 4to. This voJume, like the other works of this author, is extremely crude and undigested.

"Views in Suffolk, Norfolk, and Northamptonshire; illustrative of the works of Robert Bloomfield; accompanied with descriptions: to which is annexed, a Memoir of the Poet's Life by E. W. Brayley. London, 1806." 8vo. Of the views and descriptions in this elegant little volume, the greater part belong to Suffolk, and comprehend Euston Hall, Temple in Euston Park, Farm House at Sapiston, Sapiston Church, Honington, two of Fakenham and Troston Hall.

A small part of the south-east corner of the county is comprehended in the "Harwich Guide, containing an Account of the Ancient and Present State of that Borough; likewise a Description of Dovercourt, Mistley, Manningtree, Wickes, Walton on the Nase, Languard Fort, Felixstow, Walton, Trimley, Shotley, &c. To which are added Biographical and Historical Notices of Extraordinary Characters. Ipswich, 1808." 8vo.

In the second volume of The Imperial Guide, by J. Baker, is a "Guide to the Picturesque Scenery, Subjects of Antiquity, and Fashionable Resorts, throughout the Coast of Suffolk to Yarmouth." It contains also a " General Description of "Lowestoft" and its vicinity.

In the European Magazine, Vol. II. 168, is a brief description and view of Rendleshan House, and in the same volume, p. 356, an account of Aldborough.

MAPS, PLANS, AND VIEWS.

"A New Map of the County of Suffolk, taken from the original Map, published by Mr. John Kirby, in 1736, who took an actual and accurate Survey of the whole county; now republished (with corrections and additions). By John and William Kirby, sons of the Au thor, 1766, and engraved by John Ryland. Dedicated to his Grace, the Duke of Grafton. With twelve views of remarkable places, the arms of nine noblemen, and 102 Baronets, Esquires, &c." The views accompanying this map, which is on a large scale, are: Burgh, Mettingham, Framlingham, Orford, Bungay, and Wingfield Castles, Leiston Abbey, Butley Priory, Covehithe Church, Gateway to Bury Abbey, Blithburgh Priory, and St. James's Church at Dunwich.

The best and most correct map that has hitherto appeared of this county is that in six sheets "from the surveys of Joseph Hodskinson of Arundel Street, Strand," published by Faden, 1783.

A reduction

A reduction of Hodskinson's map in one sheet has also been published. Smaller maps of Suffolk have been given among the County Maps published by Smith and Cary, and also in the Atlas which accompanies

this work.

"A new and accurate Plan of the ancient borough of St. Edmund's Bury, in the county of Suffolk, by Alexander Downings, was engraved by Toms, and adorned with views of the Cross and Abbey Gate.

W. view of St. Mary's Church; N. front of the Earl of Bristol's house; W. front of the Abbey Gate; N. front of the Grand Jury House.

Of Ipswich a plan was published so far back as 1564. I have seen a copy of it in the possession of Mr. Raw of that town, but so much defaced that very little of it can be made out.

"The Borough or Corporation of Ipswich, in the County of Suffolk, actually surveyed and delineated, anno 1674, by John Ogilby, his Majesty's Cosmographer, and exactly engraved by Thomas Stuart, anno 1688, and are to be had at his house in Brook Street, Ipswich.

This survey, which occupies nine sheets, is adorned with views of the churches of St. Margaret, St. Nicholas, St. Mary Stoke, St. Elen, St. Stephen, St. Clement's, St. Mary Tower, St. Lawrence, St. Mary Elms, St. Mary Key, and St. Peter, and the houses of Esquire Gaudy and Lord Hereford.

A smaller plan of Ipswich, with a short historical account, is given in Grove's " Dialogue in the Elysian Fields between Wolsey and Ximenes, Oxford, 1761." 8vo. and in the same work is also a plan of the streets through which the procession passed from Cardinal College to Our Lady of Ipswich.
