Balsham: a village story

View Original

14th July 2015

You will see that preparations for our walk in September are well underway. 

Transcribing the parcels of land shown in the 1617 map continue, and some of the names are becoming like old friends!

We have recently acquired a copy of the 1910 Land Tax Map and Valuation Book.  This makes for very interesting reading, particularly as some names  also appear on Thomas Lagden's original map.
