"Samuel Simpson's Atlas"
The agreeable historian, or the compleat English traveller; giving a geographical description of every county in that part of Great-Britain, call'd England ...

This map comes from a guide book of the English Counties and the arms are those of the Right Hon the Earl of Salisbury and of the City of Hereford - described as "The Arms of Hertford". This would seem to be a "printer's error" as the Hereford map includes the arms of St Albans labelled as "The Arms of Hereford." [Details of map from Printed Maps of Hertfordshire.]
For the parish of Sandridge the map shows: Sandridge and Nomans Land
