Academic and author Bill introduces ten maps that have shaped the county of Cumbria, from the first mention of Cumbria in c.1050 through the lavish – and much copied – maps of Christopher Saxton to the heyday of the Ordnance Survey. Moving his focus throughout the county, Bill will cover tourist maps, dispute maps, geological maps and more in this whistle-stop tour of Cumbrian cartography.
