SUMMARY:Talk: Mapping Cambridge's History
DESCRIPTION:The Historic Towns Trust’s ‘Historical Map of Cambridge’\, published in December 2024\, portrays the city’s history over nearly two millennia\, from Roman times to the 20th century\, giving equal prominence to Town and University and incorporating the latest findings by archaeologists to illuminate what lies under the present townscape. In this illustrated talk\, Tony Kirby (one of its compilers) will explain how the map was produced\, the research that underlay it\, and how it fits into the long tradition of maps of Cambridge. \n\n\nAbout the speaker:\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nUntil his retirement\, Tony Kirby was Co-ordinator of Strategic & Curriculum Planning at Anglia Ruskin University\, having previously been Principal Lecturer in History. He was Co-President of the Cambridge Antiquarian Society 2022-24\, and is a former Chair of the Cambridgeshire Records Society and Secretary of the Cambridgeshire Association for Local History. \nHe was joint editor with Professor Susan Oosthuizen of An Atlas of Cambridgeshire and Huntingdonshire History (2000) and the author of Anglia Ruskin University\, 1858 – 2008: A Celebratory History (2008). He has also written many commentaries on late 19th/early 20th century 25” Ordnance Survey maps for Alan Godfrey Editions\, and is currently working on that publisher’s new series of Cambridgeshire maps. \nSupporting the Museum of Cambridge\nThe Museum of Cambridge is an independent Charity and is not part of either the Cambridge Council or the University of Cambridge.
