An Historical Map of Winchester by Martin Biddle

A full colour map based on a reconstruction of Winchester around 1800, just before Jane Austen's final days in the city. The map shows the main medieval and post-medieval buildings in this attractive and interesting city including the lost medieval Old Minster, New Minster and the King's palace and hall. The map's cover has a short introduction to the city's history, and on the reverse of the map an illustrated gazetteer of Winchester's main buildings and sites of interest.Combining clear cartography and extensive research, this is a revised version of a map first published in 2012. The new edition has been substantially updated, with many more sites of historic importance added and map detail refined. Of interest to historians and those who know and love Winchester, the map charts the process of renewal and development which has shaped one of England's most important cities.
