Historian's Guide to Early British Maps
Author: Helen Wallis
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 9780521551526
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 488
Book Description
Great Britain and Ireland enjoy a rich cartographic heritage, yet historians have not made full use of early maps in their writings and research. This is partly due to a lack of information about exactly which maps are available. With the publication of this volume from the Royal Historical Society, we now have a comprehensive guide to the early maps of Great Britain. The book is divided into two parts: part one describes the history and purpose of maps in a series of short essays on the early mapping of the British Isles; part two comprises a guide to the collections, national and regional. Now available from Cambridge University Press, this volume provides an essential reference tool for anyone requiring to access maps of the British Isles dating back to the medieval period and beyond.

'The Fairest Arch in England'
Author: Barbara Wilson
Publisher: Council for British Archaeology(GB)
ISBN:
Category : Architecture
Languages : en
Pages : 138
Book Description
The first bridge to span the River Ouse in York was built by the Romans. Then, and in the medieval period, the river remained an essential lifeline of communication, an important facilitator for transport and trade and a place to obtain drinking water. This supplementary volume to The Archaeology of York series looks at bridges past and present, though focusing primarily on the Tudor bridge built in 1565 and dismantled from 1810-1818. Although almost no archaeological evidence for the bridge survives, the imminent destruction of the bridge meant that artists were keen to capture this particular river view before it was lost forever. This volume discusses and describes the history of the Ouse crossings, the construction and form of the Tudor bridge and its associated buildings and waterfront and includes a gazetteer of illustrative material.
