Additionally, during the 1720s in Britain, the term Riding appears to have primarily referred to administrative and geographical divisions (administrative districts) within the Yorkshire region.
Researching the publisher, Owen & Bowen, reveals that they produced road maps and county maps of England and Wales in the first half of the 18th century (around 1720-1760s). Their characteristic feature is the detailed inclusion of local features and market towns in addition to road maps.
