On the map a black dot is placed on the three counties in which most of the action of the novel occurs, and several other places in the novel were marked where there was room on the map
Hertfordshire
Imaginary places:
Longbourn (residence of the Bennets), Netherfield Park (residence of the Bingleys), Lucas Lodge, the residence of the Lucases, and the village of Meryton, where the militia regiment is quartered for a time. Less important places in the vicinity are Oakham Mount (to which Darcy and Elizabeth walk on the morning after their йclaircissement), the memorably-named town of ---- (where the London coaches stop, and the George Inn is located), and the houses or estates of Ashworth, Haye-Park, Purvis Lodge, and Stoke (all of which Mrs. Bennet considers as possible residences for Lydia and Wickham).
Derbyshire:
Imaginary places:
Pemberley (residence of Mr. Darcy) and the villages of Lambton (former residence of Mrs. Gardiner) and Kympton (where Wickham was to be the clergyman).
Real places:
Scenic and touristic locations in Derbyshire mentioned in connection with Elizabeth and the Gardiners' tour are Bakewell, Chatsworth, Matlock, Dove Dale, and the Peak.
On their itinerary from Hertfordshire to Derbyshire, they took in Blenheim (the estate of the Duke of Marlborough) and Oxford, in Oxfordshire; and Warwick, the famous ruined castle of Kenilworth, and the city of Birmingham, in Warwickshire.
Kent:
Real places:
The black dot on Kent is placed in the approximate location of Westerham, in northwest Kent near London. Ramsgate is a sea-side resort, where Georgiana Darcy stayed for a summer.
Imaginary places:
Rosings (the residence of Lady Catherine) and Hunsford (where Mr. Collins is rector) are near Westerham.
Sussex:
Real places:
On the southeast coast the town of Brighton is the fashionable sea-side resort, with a temporary military camp, where Lydia goes. In real life it was the hangout of the Prince Regent and his decadent coterie; in a letter of January 8th 1799 to Cassandra, Jane Austen wrote "I assure you that I dread the idea of going to Brighton as much as you do, but I am not without hopes that something may happen to prevent it". Eastbourne is another seaside town on the Sussex coast, to the east of Brighton.
"Here I am once more in this scene of dissipation and vice, and I begin already to find my morals corrupted."
