This project aims to provide useable maps and shape files of some roads and paths based on early English sources. Initially, we are working to map out the roads in Thomas Smith’s, A Particular Description of England and William Harrison’s Description of England.
Preliminary work was done in spring 2020 by students in HIST 376. Henry Reade and Tinatin Omoeva are currently working with Professor Shaw to complete the first stage, mapping out Smith’s indicated highways.
