Woodstock

1 : 31680 The map of the area surrounding the Royal Wychwood Forest and Oxford was drawn by teaching draughtsman at the Tower of London, William Stanley. After inaccuracies were found in the plan during routine checks in 1820, Stanley hastened to explain that the employment by the Board of Ordnance of local civilian surveyors "of various abilities" to carry out much of the mapping meant that accuracy was often sacrificed for speed as these civilian personnel were paid according to the number of miles surveyed and drawn. An ochre-coloured turnpike road forms a boundary from Shipton Down at the top left of the map to Yarnton at the centre right. The cumulative mileage appears alongside the route in figures. The close attention Stanley pays to communication routes emphasises the military focus of these studies. Stanley, William

Bampton

1 : 31680 William Stanley was listed as a first class Military surveyor and draughtsman at the Drawing Room of the Tower of London. In 1821, he was asked to revise this plan by the Ordnance Survey's Superintendent, William Mudge. Stanley wrote to explain that he had "a great deal of trouble" in finding his field books and sketches "in consequence of its being so long since it was done, about 10 years." The dirty and torn condition of the drawing most likely results from constant travelling between the Tower and the surveyors in the field for amendments and corrections. Inns named include "Tumble Down Dick", "Rose and Crown", and "Kingstones Inn". Tollgates are also noted. Stanley, William

WILTONIAE

This map of Wiltshire is from the 1583 edition of the Saxton atlas of England and Wales. TThis atlas was first published as a whole in 1579. It consists of 35 coloured maps depicting the counties of England and Wales. The atlas is of great significance to British cartography as it set a standard of cartographic representation in Britain and the maps remained the basis for English county mapping, with few exceptions, until after 1750. During the reign of Elizabeth I map use became more common, with many government matters referring to increasingly accurate maps with consistent scales and symbols, made possible by advances in surveying techniques. Illustrating the increasing used of maps in government matters, Lord Burghley, Elizabeth I’s Secretary of State, who had been determined to have England and Wales mapped in detail from the 1550s, selected the cartographer Christopher Saxton to produce a detailed and consistent survey of the country. The financier of the project was Thomas Seckford Master of Requests at the Court of Elizabeth I, whose arms appear, along with the royal crest, on each map. Saxton’s name appears in the decorative scale bar as does the name of the engraver of this map, Remigius Hogenberg ,one of seven English and Flemish engravers employed to produced the copper plates for the atlas. Relief, in the form of uniform rounded representations of hills, is the main topographical feature presented in the maps. Rather than provide a scientific representation of relative relief these give a general impression of the lie of the land. Settlements and notable buildings are also recorded pictorially; a small building with a spire represents a village, while more important towns are indicated by groups of buildings. Here Stonehenge is marked by a pictorial representation and named The Stonadge’. Saxton, Christopher Ryther, Augustine
