A historic black-and-white map of Edinburgh from 1742, showing detailed street layouts and landmarks. The Nor Loch, a large body of water once used for defense and waste disposal, is prominently displayed north of the Old Town. Edinburgh Castle is visible on the left, overlooking the city’s dense medieval streets. The map is highly detailed, with ornate coats of arms and decorative typography at the top.

A 1742 city plan of Edinburgh, including the infamous. Once a defensive moat, then a dumping ground, and eventually transformed into one of the city’s most scenic spots. Imagine the smell back then! #EdinburghHistory #edinburgh #OldEdinburgh #HistoricMaps #ScottishHistory 🪬🧿

A Surprise Found at the King County Archives This week we visited the King County Archives (KCA) on the edge of downtown Seattle. My partner in crime, Judi, had been chatting with them about diagrams, documents and photos of the Lost Drummer …

Maps!! Love them and couple months ago we went to the King County Archives to view original Road Establishment Maps of the county.

Here is an article I wrote about this old map adventure! #history #Lostroads #Roadestablishmentmaps #historicmaps #roadmaps #maps
