Abstract
An authoritative and unique work which explains in cartographic and literary form the history and development of towns and cities in the British Isles from the earliest times to about 1800, ie before their medieval character was transformed by the Industrial Revolution. The maps and plans unfold for the first time, a reliable ground record of towns for periods of their history long before the science of surveying and mapping was developed.
