Anonymous.Detail showing Sherborne park.No compass-points; but south at top. Bounded by the manors of Poyntington; Yeovil; Woolcombe and Pulham. Each manor is coloured either in blue; green; yellow; purple; brick red; or dark pink; or is left uncoloured. Names of owners are given for nearly all the manors except those; including Sherborne itself; belonging to the Bishop of Salisbury; for whom the map appears to have been commissioned.
