In a printed note in the lower margin the publisher notes that "having Surveyed the whole of the Great Roads in this Map, and determined the exact situation of the Noblemen's and Gentleman's Seats, [he] is aware that there may be some Houses omitted which from their multiplicity is unavoidable, but considerable pains have been bestowed in selecting those that appeared to him of most importance, but should any material omissions occur, information on the subject will be thankfully received and carefully attended to."
