Maps And History In South-West England


Add your own review!

Overview

This volume of essays considers the practical and political purposes for which maps were used, the symbolic and ideological roles of maps in the history of South-West England and the ways in which map evidence can be used to recover facts about the past. A range of maps is examined: early county maps; manorial and estate plans; maps produced in conjunction with enclosure awards and tithe surveys; and Ordnance Survey maps. The purpose for which each type of map was created is given its national context.
