THE Carriers Cosmographie or A Briefe Relation of The Innes Ordinaries Hosteries and other lodgings in and neere London where the Carriers Waggons Foote-posts and Higglers doe usually come from any parts townes shires and countries of the Kingdomes of England Principality of Wales as also from the Kingdomes of Scotland and Ireland With nomination of what daies of the weeke they doe come to London and on what daies they returne whereby all sorts of people may finde direction how to receiue or send goods or letters unto such places as their occasions may require As also Where the Ships Hoighs Barkes Tiltboats Barges and wherries do usually attend to Carry Passengers and Goods to the coast Townes of England Scotland Ireland or the Netherlands and where the Barges and Boats are ordinarily to bee had that goe up the River of Thames westward from London By Iohn Taylor London Printed by A. G. 1637. To all Whom it may concerne with my kinde remembrance to the Posts Carriers Waggoners and Higglers IF any man or woman whomsoever hath either occasion or patience to Read this following description it is no doubt but they shall find full satisfaction for as much as they laidout for the booke if not it is against my will and my good intentions are lost and frustrate I wrote it for three Causes first for a generall and necessary good use for the whole Common-wealth secondly to expresse my gratefull duty to all those who have honestly paid me my mony which they owed me for my Bookes of the collection of Tavernes in London and Westminster and tenne shires or Counties next round about London and I doe also thanke all such as doe purpose to pay me heereafter thirdly for the third sort that can pay me and will not I write this as a document I am well pleased to leave them to the hangmans tuition as being past any other mans mending for I would have them to know that I am sensible of the too much losse that I doe suffer by their pride or cousenage their number being so many and my charge so great which I paid for paper and printing of those bookes that the base dealing of those sharks is Insupportable But the tedious T oyle that I had in this Collection and the harsh and unsavoury answers that I was faine to take patiently from Hostlers Carriers and Porters may move any man that thinks himselfe mortall to pitty me In some places I was suspected for a proiector or one that had devised some tricke to bring the Carriers under some new taxation and sometimes I was held to have been a man taker a Serieant or baylife to arrest or attach mens good or beasts indeed I was scarce taken for an honest man amongst the most of them all which suppositions I was inforced oftentimes to wash away with two or three Iugges of Beere at most of the Innes I came to In some Innes or Hosteries I could get no certaine Intelligence so that I did take Instructions at the next Inne unto it which I did oftentimes take upon trust though I doubted it was indirect and imperfect Had the Carriers hostlers and others knowne my harmelesse and honest intendments I doe thinke this following relation had beene more large and usefull but if there be any thing left out in this first Impression it shall be with diligence inserted hereafter when the Carriers and I shall bee more familiarly acquainted and they with the hostlers shall be pleased in their ingenerosity to afford me more Ample directions In the meane space I hope I shall give none of my Readers cause to curse the Carrier that brought me to towne Some may object that the Carriers doe often change and shift from one Inne or lodging to another whereby this following direction may be heereafter untrue to them I answer that I am not bound to binde them or to stay them in any place but if they doe remove they may be enquired for at the place which they have left or for saken and it is an easie matter to finde them by the learned intelligence of some other Carrier an hostler or an understanding Porter Others may obiect and say that I have not named all the townes and places that Carriers doe goe unto in England and Wales To whom I yeeld but yet I answer that if a Carrier of Yorke hath a letter or goods to deliver at any towne in his way thither he serves the turne well enough and there are carriers and messengers from Yorke to carry such goods and letters as are to be past any waies north broad and wide as farre or further than Barwicke so he that sends to Lancaster may from thence have what he sends conveyd to Kendall or Cockermouth and what a man sends to Hereford may from thence be passed to Saint Davids in Wales the Worster carriers can convey any thing as farre as Carmarthen and those that goe to Chester may send to Carnarvan the carriers or posts that goe to Exeter may send daily to Plimouth or to the Mount in Cornewall Maxfield Chipnam Hungerford Newberry and all those Townes betweene London and Bristow the Bristow carriers doe carry letters unto them so likewise all the townes and places are served which are betwixt London and Lincolne or Boston Yarmouth Oxford Cambridge Walsingham Dover Rye or any places of the Kings Dominions with safe and true carriage of goods and letters as by this little bookes directions may be perceived Besides if a man at Constantinople or some other remote part or Region shall chance to send a letter to his parents master or friends that dwell at Nottingham Derby Shrewsbury Exeter or any other towne in England then this booke will give instructions where the Carriers doe lodge that may convey the said letter which could not easily be done without it for there are not many that by hart or memory can tell suddenly where and when every carrier is to be found I have for the ease of the Reader the speedier finding out of every townes name to which any one would send or from whence they would receive set them downe by way of Alphabet and thus Reader if thou beest pleased I am satisfied if thou beest contented I am paid if thou beest angry I care not for it A THe Carriers of Saint Albanes doe come every friday to the signe of the
