Revolutionary Times Atlas of Warwickshire & Worcestershire

ISBN - 9781844918119 - Hardcover - A4 (297 mm x 210 mm)
This book includes all the borough surveys, town plans and survey reports for Warwickshire and Worcestershire for those boroughs eligible in 1832 to elect one member or more to Parliament. The exquisitely reproduced surveys from the antique originals enable the reader to view the lay of the land encompassing many townships, villages and hamlets across the counties of Warwickshire and Worcestershire as they were almost 200 years ago. The borough surveys detail named houses, halls, churches, farms, mills, woods and heaths, lakes and pools, many of which have now disappeared. The book is informative, describing the years leading to the passing of the 1832 Reform Act, the time when political reform pulled Britain back from the brink of revolution and civil war
