From here you can also access the Tudor and Stuart Shrewsbury reconstruction map, which gives an extraordinarily detailed view of Shrewsbury circa 1630, as well as a host of additional information about the Tudor and Stuart periods. A similar map of Much Wenlock c1485 introduces the medieval town and its priory in a manner not attempted before.
