'Banbury. Ordnance Survey of England, Sheet 201.'
A detailed late Victorian Ordnance Survey map anchored by the historic market town of Banbury, extending west across the rolling countryside of southern Warwickshire into the northern fringe of Shakespeare Country, including Kineton, Shipston-on-Stour, Charlecote, Compton Wynyates and Edge Hill, and east into rural Northamptonshire as far as Byfield. The map follows the winding courses of the River Cherwell and the River Stour, while the Oxford Canal threads its way through the landscape. Railways, roads, villages, churches, country houses, farms, woodland and relief are shown in the remarkable clarity for which the Ordnance Survey's coloured one-inch maps became renowned. Revised in 1892 and printed in 1899, it captures a largely rural landscape just before the motor age transformed the Midlands, preserving the historic pattern of waterways, communications and settlement across one of England's most attractive agricultural regions.
