Cumbria - 1,000 years of maps

"The name Camri first appears on maps in AD1050. Since then the Lake District and historic counties of Cumberland, Westmorland and Lancashire have been mapped countless times. From geological plots to nautical charts, audacious forgeries to postal itineraries, town surveys to military plans, Cumbria – 1,000 Years Of Maps not only profiles the evolution of Cumbrian cartography, it also celebrated the rich social history of a much-loved landscape."--
