{"title":"Cefnllys","description":"\u003cp\u003eTwo parliamentary maps form this focused collection of Cefnllys. Robert Dawson’s 1832 Reform Act plan records the tiny historic borough and its proposed electoral boundary, while Henry James’s 1868 Boundary Commission map shows Cefnllys as a contributory borough of New Radnor. Together they preserve unusually detailed nineteenth-century mapping of a place now reduced to a small settlement.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"cefnllys-borough-town-plan-for-the-reform-act-wales-dawson-1832-old-map-p-7-012246","title":"CEFNLLYS borough\/town plan for the REFORM ACT.

At this time, the House of Commons elected members for two types of constituencies: counties, and boroughs. Many of the pre-reform boroughs had small electorates which were under the control of rich landowners; the so-called \"rotten\" or pocket boroughs. Conversely, in the industrial towns and cities which were growing strongly as a result of the industrial revolution, the burgeoning urban populations had become substantially under-represented. The Reform Bill redistributed parliamentary seats, enlarging or disenfranchising rotten boroughs, and recognising the emerging industrial towns. For existing boroughs, the maps show the old, unreformed boundaries (in green), and the boundaries of the reformed or new borough (in red). Parish or townships boundaries are shown on some of the maps in brown.
