Medieval Town Plans

by Paul Hindle

Between the mid 12th and the early 14th centuries the towns of Britain grew both in number and in size. Intended as a practical guide, this concise, well-illustrated book considers the archaeological, documentary and cartographic evidence for medieval town-planning and shows how survivng and lost features can be identified in the modern townscape. Sections focus on town layouts, streets, defences, markets, churches, suburbs and property boundaries and the book concludes with a case study on Ludlow. 64p with illus. (Shire Archaeology 62, 1990, rep 2002)
