Richard Horwood's "Plan of the City of London 3" is a significant cartographic work that forms part of his extensive mapping project of London in the late 18th century. Horwood, a surveyor and cartographer, embarked on the ambitious task of creating a detailed map of London, which was published in multiple sheets between 1792 and 1799. His work aimed to provide a comprehensive and accurate representation of the city, capturing the intricate layout of streets, buildings, and notable landmarks during a period of rapid urban development and change.

The "Plan of the City of London 3" is one of the sheets from this larger project, showcasing a specific section of the city with remarkable precision. Horwood's maps are renowned for their meticulous detail, including the footprints of individual buildings, which was an innovative feature at the time. This level of detail made Horwood's maps invaluable for various purposes, including urban planning, property disputes, and historical research.

Horwood's mapping project was notable not only for its detail but also for its scale. The complete map, when assembled, measured approximately 13 feet by 7 feet, making it one of the largest maps of London ever produced. The project was funded through subscriptions, with Horwood seeking financial support from the public and various institutions to complete his work. Despite the challenges of funding and the labor-intensive nature of the project, Horwood's dedication resulted in a map that remains a crucial historical document for understanding London's urban landscape at the close of the 18th century.

The "Plan of the City of London 3" continues to be a valuable resource for historians, geographers, and enthusiasts of cartography, offering a window into the past and a detailed snapshot of London during a transformative period in its history.
