This detailed map covers the tiny town of Ilchester. In 1901 this had a population of just 433, but it was once a major town which, in the Middle Ages, boasted 7 churches. However it was already in serious decline by the late Middle Ages and in 1542 Leland describes it as "one of the ancientest townes.yn wonderful decay".
