Scoured files from 50s/60s today from old Hartley Wintney Rural District Council in in Winchester. Inspired by @municipaldreams - John Boughton's "A History of Council Housing in 100 Estates": Mine is Manor Park council estate, Yateley, Hampshire: Nan moved in Day 1, 1952; Mum soon follows; I'm back again years later - it's home. Hope to discover much more; not sure where it will take me.

For day 1 of week we have Benjamin Donn's 'A map of the county of Devon, with the city and county of Exeter' (1765).

The Bideford-born maths teacher won £100 in a competition to produce the best county map, but spent £1,900 on the endeavor.
