 The olde Home Town - devonite
A couple of posters in the book thread mentioned "olde maps".

I am fascinated with them also especially of my local area!

heres a couple of the town i was brought up in, the first one is the earliest one i can find at the moment and is 1610 (must be earlier ones as the castle was built in the 10/1100`s) and the other exactly 400 years later!

I notice a couple of things have changed, but even in the modern map you can still see the 1600 one! - Has your hometown changed much?
