      This is cool! I wish it were higher res so I could read more! I’m not British but I wonder how many of these towns/landmarks still exist (probably lots)

      This is inside the covers of Unruly, a humorous book by David Mitchell that goes through the history of English monarchs from the AngloSaxons to the Tudors

      A lot of people here in Scotland and the north of England no doubt feel that this is an accurate portrayal of a London-centric view of the British Isles. To be fair to Brother Matthew it was a sizeable walk from St Albans to Stirling back in the day.

      Considering that at the time geographical surveying wasn’t invented yet and he had to go with descriptions of pilgrims and merchants, it’s a good map for the time.
