England South Coast Plymouth Sound Smeaton Pass & The Narrows

Admiralty Chart #1901 depicting Plymouth Sound, Smeaton Pass, and Cattewater—an authentic nautical map originally surveyed in 1972 and reprinted in 1988 with corrections through 2001. This working chart exemplifies the practical navigation tools that guided maritime traffic along England’s South Coast, bearing the hallmarks of genuine seafaring use: hand annotations, printed overlays, and manuscript notations accumulated during active service. Measuring 70.0 x 116.0 cm (27.5 x 45.75 inches) in folding format, it remains in good condition with blank verso. Published under Rear Admiral Geoffrey Hall’s Admiralty superintendence, this chart captures historical hydrographic detail of one of Britain’s most strategically significant anchorages.
