Map, Skirmish at Clifton Hall, 18th December, 1745, engraved by Sidney Hall, Bury Street, Bloomsbury, published by Longman, Hurst, Rees, Orme and Brown, Paternoster Row, London, 1820.
Included in the Memoirs of the Rebellion in 1745 and 1746, by the Chevalier de Johnstone.
The map shows troop positions of the rebels and the Duke of Cumberland's forces. Troops are labelled by a letter referring to a table in which phrases 'Our detachment with the Artillery' and 'The 4000 Men of the Duke of Cumberland in march to cut off our detachment' confirm that the map was drawn by a rebel sympathiser.
