Antiquities of London and its environs is a topographical book of engraved views of old London houses, monuments and statues, published in London in 1800 by John Thomas Smith and several booksellers, aimed at antiquaries and collectors of London history. The engravings are plain line views of brick and timber facades, with ground-level street scenes and small figures, showing how historic buildings were built and fronted, useful to a designer for period architecture, street-level perspective and sparse etched line work.
