Description: | <P>Abstract copyright UK Data Service and data collection copyright owner.</P> The aims of the project were :<br> to ascertain how many enclosure, parochial assessment, drainage and sanitary maps survive in England and Wales;<br> to analyse their cartographic characteristics, including scale, date and mapmaker;<br> to analyse the way in which central and local government and their agencies used maps as instruments with which to implement policy relating to the ownership, use and taxation of land;<br> to analyse regional and temporal variations in the coverage of England and Wales by various types of map;<br> to obtain data on historic parish and township boundaries in England and Wales. <B>Main Topics</B>:<BR> The dataset covers all the enclosure, parochial assessment, drainage and sanitary maps of England and Wales which were available for public consultation at the time of data collection (1993-1997). For all maps, the date of the map, its scale, its centroid on the National Grid, its dimensions, its maker (where known) and all details as to the types of information (boundaries, communications, settlement, land use, water features, public boundaries, cadastral information) contained on each map are recorded. It is possible to analyse the data by late nineteenth century county, by date and by type of map. <br> <br> Please note: this study does not include information on named individuals and would therefore not be useful for personal family history research.<br> <br> |
