Photograph of plan of whole parish, full names, acreages, occupiers and extent of trees on tenements stated, together with bounds and acreages of the commons on the hills. Large scale elevations of the church and Court House in addition to smaller drawings in situ; houses in village and West Street drawn in elevation. Decorated with 3 compass roses, scale, achievement of Luttrell arms, drawings of vessels in Bristol Channel, hunting scene and 'the pasture of the wild bullox on Quantox' [Much detail, particularly of marginal notes along the eastern boundary is unclear, but it appears to relate to rights shared with the adjoining manor of Kilve to a 15' strip against the enclosed lands; the original map is in the possession of Col. G. W. Luttrell at East Quantoxhead]
