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 .
