The third image is for information purposes only, to explain the term Ordnance Model Depot as seen on the lower right of the cabinet card.
Henry Mayson also had a model of the Lake District.
He constructed a relief model of the Lake District, based on the mapping of the Ordnance Survey. The model was at 6 inches to 1 mile, 12 ft 9 ins by 9 ft 3 ins. It was exhibited in his photographic studio, charge one shilling.
