Ireland is mapped county by county in these maps by Alfred Adlard, a London engraver and printer of the Victorian period whose Irish work here is dated 1843. Some sheets show single counties and others pair or group them, such as Dublin with Kildare or Wicklow with Carlow and Wexford, and together they cover all four provinces. A general map of Ireland records provinces, counties and railways, a separate Killarney sheet looks closely at the lakes, and names such as King's and Queen's Counties preserve the administrative language of the time.
