Grantham 24

1 : 31680 This drawing depicts the county boundary of Lincolnshire and Leicestershire as a red dotted line at lower left. The Ermine Street (or High Dyke) is shown running down the right of the sheet. This Roman road extended from Cichester in Sussex to York, passing through Lincolnshire. At lower left, in the Vale of Belvoir, the villages of Plungar, Redmile, Bottesford and Muston are recorded along the Grantham Canal, along with the prominent Belvoir Castle. Budgen, Charles

Lincoln

1 : 31680 This drawing shows the county boundary of Lincolnshire and Nottinghamshire as a red dotted line down the left of the sheet. The county town is depicted at the top of the plan on the north bank of the river Witham, set on the summit of the limestone ridge known as the Cliff Hills. Water-filled dykes, constructed to drain the fens, are represented to the right of the sheet, together with the ancient cattle droves, long straight roads that characterise this part of the Lincolnshire landscape. Stevens, Henry

Boston

This drawing covers the part of Lincolnshire known as South Holland. It shows the saltmarshes, intertidal banks of sand and mud, shallow waters and deep channels that characterise the Wash, the largest estuarine system in Britain. Depicted further inland, to the left of the sheet, are ancient cattle droves, the long straight roads that are a prominent feature of this part of Lincolnshire. Budgen, Charles

Hackthorn

1 : 31680 This drawing covers part of Lincolnshire (north of Lincoln) known as the Lindsey Part. In the ninth century, after years of raids on the east coast of England, this part of Lincolnshire was finally occupied by the Danes. Evidence of this invasion survives in place names terminating with 'thorpe', an early-Danish word for settlement. The Ermine Street is highlighted in buff down the middle of the plan. This Roman road ran from Chichester in Sussex to York, via Lincolnshire. Pencil rays used to plot the survey are clearly visible on the manuscript. Stevens, Henry

Louth

1 : 31680 This drawing covers a section of the Lincolnshire coast from Humberstone in the north to Mablethorpe in the south. Down the right of the sheet, the sandy beaches characterising this stretch of the coast are represented by banks of fine dots. Salt marshes are indicated by areas of grey shading. Further inland, the map shows the ditches and dykes constructed to drain the fens. Metcalf, Edward B.

Spalding

1 : 31680 This drawing covers part of Lincolnshire, showing drains across the fens highlighted in blue. These date from the 17th century, when James I appointed Dutch engineer Cornelius Vermuyden to direct the drainage of the wetlands. Many local people opposed the scheme as the plan involved commonland on which they grazed cattle. As a result of Vermuyden's work, the fens changed radically in appearance, from an area of flooded marshes to one of extensively farmed agricultural land. In the middle of the sheet is a series of decoy ponds, built in the 17th and 18th centuries to lure wildlife. Yeakell, Thomas Jr.

1 : 31680 Dikes and canals constructed to drain the fens are the prominent feature of this plan of the West Fen in Lincolnshire. These date from the 17th century, when James I appointed Dutch engineer Cornelius Vermuyden to direct the drainage of the wetlands. Many local people opposed the scheme as the plan involved commonland on which they grazed cattle. As a result of Vermuyden's work, the fens changed radically in appearance, from an area of flooded marshes to one of extensively farmed agricultural land. Budgen, Charles
