No title appears on this map; the title applied here is based on content. Scale, legend, and orientation are not given; but north is at the bottom, based on the annotation and locations on the map. The map depicts 10 counties of Chuzhou prefecture pictorially, including Lishui, Qingyuan, Yunhe, Jingning, Qingtian, Longquan, Suichang, Songyang, Xuanping, Jinyun. No town wall was drawn for Jingning, Yunhe, Longquan, Suichang, Songyang, Xuan Ping, and Jinyun counties; only their four direction gates and county names were indicated. A gate was erased from the map because Jinyun County lack of west gate. There are also detailed illustrations of each checkpoint with locations identified and number of soldiers noted. There is a great deal of information on the location of military posts. The map may have been drawn around the 15th year of Qing Jiaqing’s reign, 1810.
