John Speed's Theatre of the Empire of Great Britaine (1611-12) (2x4)


Ausstrahlung: Sep 26, 2005

Nicholas Crane follows the routes recorded by 17th-century cartographer John Speed. The maps are unusual in that they don't list any roads, recording instead county boundaries. The presenter uses these documents to find his way along the England-Scotland border, before heading to Berwick, a town which Speed measured exactly in 5ft paces.
