Notes

A very rare early town centre map from the Survey of the Lands of William, First Earl of Pembroke. The drawing shows the Market Place, with St. Mary's Church and the market cross in the top right corner, and the cross roads, known as Four Corners in the top left corner. Most of the twelve medieval churches and many medieval houses have already gone.
