Fortgeschrittene gehen weiter zu den #Weirs, meine (late to the party) Neuentdeckung des Winters, einfach umwerfend!

It's always interesting to see a past #landscape through the eyes of the people who inhabited it. This beautifully drawn and painted #map shows the #bridges, #weirs and #watermills across the river #Trent between Nottingham and Newark in the early 16thC in such loving detail that one can almost imagine standing on each site with the cartographer as he sketches.
