A Map of Essex by Robert Morden is a significant cartographic work from the late 17th century, reflecting the burgeoning interest in detailed and accurate mapping during this period. Robert Morden, an esteemed English cartographer, geographer, and publisher, produced this map as part of his broader efforts to chart the counties of England with unprecedented precision. Morden's work is particularly notable for its inclusion in the 1695 edition of William Camden's "Britannia," a comprehensive topographical and historical survey of Great Britain.

The map of Essex, like Morden's other county maps, is distinguished by its meticulous attention to detail and artistic quality. It features a combination of geographical accuracy and decorative elements, including elaborate cartouches, heraldic symbols, and illustrations of significant landmarks. The map provides a detailed depiction of the county's towns, villages, roads, rivers, and topographical features, offering valuable insights into the landscape and settlements of Essex during the late 17th century.

Morden's cartographic style is characterized by its clarity and precision, which were advanced for the time. His maps were among the first to use triangulation techniques, enhancing their accuracy compared to earlier maps. The map of Essex, in particular, showcases Morden's skill in balancing aesthetic appeal with functional cartographic information, making it a valuable resource for both contemporary users and modern historians.

The significance of A Map of Essex extends beyond its immediate utility; it represents a key moment in the history of English cartography.
