Balsham: a village story

Which charity commissioned the 1617 map of Balsham?

It's Charterhouse in London. We’re really proud of our connection with the Brothers. The history between Balsham and the community of Brothers goes back to 1611 and we were delighted to receive an article from Dr Stephen Porter on their behalf which we published in Balsham, a village story 1616-2017.
