EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the "County Map of Radnorshire, Wales" dating back to approximately 1777. The map is a remarkable piece from "The Large English Atlas: or, a new set of maps of all the counties of England and Wales" meticulously crafted by renowned cartographers Emanuel Bowen, Thomas Kitchin, and others. With its intricate details and artistic flair, this antique map offers a glimpse into the historical landscape of Radnorshire during that era. Nestled in central Wales, Radnorshire's towns such as Knighton, Llandrindod Wells, Presteigne, Rhayader, Newbridge on Wye, and New Radnor are beautifully depicted with precision. As we explore this enchanting map further at Sheffield Libraries' archives (912 STF), it becomes evident that it was created using the best available surveys at the time. The craftsmanship is truly commendable; every contour line and waterway has been delicately etched onto paper. While admiring this stunning visual representation of Radnorshire's geography from centuries ago, one can't help but appreciate how far cartography has come since then. This print serves as a reminder of our rich history and provides an opportunity to reflect upon how landscapes have evolved over time
