[Most, or perhaps all, of these places still exist, though, doubtless, a number of them have changed proprietors. We have endeavoured to ascertain what changes have taken place, but with very little success. This, however, is a matter of little consequence, as the real value of this work consists in the illustrative descriptions and engravings, which are altogether independent of the names of either persons or places.-J. C. L.]
