Foxing to endpapers and occasionally to plates and pages. Town plan has a tear in one fold and a couple of smaller ones. Hartlepool is a seaside and port town in County Durham, England. The old town was founded in the 7th century around the monastery of Hartlepool Abbey. The village grew into a town in the Middle Ages and its harbour became an important port. The new town of West Hartlepool was created in 1835 after a new port was built and railway links from the South Durham coal fields and Stockton-on-Tees were created. The two towns merged and became known as the Hartlepools before dropping the "s". Former owner Sir Thomas Edward Watson Bart. was connected to the port of Newport for over 40 years and was High Sheriff of Monmouthshire in 1911. Reprint of the original work published in 1816 with a supplemental history to 1851 inclusive.…
