Cruchley's reduced Ordnance Survey map of Oxfordshire and Buckinghamshire on a scale of 2 miles to an inch. Major cities and towns shown on the map include Oxford, High Wycombe, Aylesbury, Bicester, Abingdon, Banbury, Buckingham, Luton, Hemel Hempstead, Leighton Buzzard, and Woodstock. George Cruchley published his Reduced Ordnance Maps in direct competition with the Ordnance Survey's more detailed, but also more expensive maps of England & Wales. The clarity and attractive colour of Cruchley's maps also made them popular with the public.
Railways are marked on the map in pink, major roads are in orange, and enclosed parks and estates are coloured green. Though the map itself is undated, the manuscript addition of a railway line to Witney suggests an approximate date of 1860. The two stations between Witney and the mainline are unnamed and roughly located, suggesting that the line, which opened in 1861, was either very new or still under construction at the time this map was published.
