A research folder compiled by N Spry for The Gloucester Civic Trust.
The images are of all the historic maps of the city and its locale that Nigel Spry or others have scanned dating from early 17th century onwards, including Harold Wingham’s fourteen or so photographic copies of the 1852 ‘health map’. Also included are two earlier medieval skyline views and two 18th century distant prospects from etchings. Visualisations by Philip Moss and Richard Bryant of the Roman fort, colonia, sub-Roman town and the 18th century city are also included, together with some EH mid 20th century oblique aerial photos, with their permission to use.
