Map Collection of the British Isles between 800 and 1600

'The Unveiling of Britain' allows users to explore items either as large images or using a zoom facility. Each map is accompanied by detailed explanatory notes, establishing the historical context of the map's creation, with insights into emerging technologies used in its production and the political background to what it might contain or exclude."
