Love this Napoleonic map of Galway Bay, the Shannon estuary and Kinsale. There’s so much detail from where to anchor, where to stock up on wood and from the place names in Irish, English and French. Hours of fun!!!

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 Β£100 in a competition to produce the best county map, but spent Β£1,900 on the endeavor.

We can (just!) fit a whole primary school class around our fabulous reproduction walk-on map of Wakefield in 1823. It’s great to be able to see what’s changed over the last 200 years and what hasn’t
