Lovely Map. See the changes.
My cousin Simon sent me this link to a map of South West England smoothly superimposed on the present google view. It is fun to play by toggling the fade button at the top to see what was then and what is now. Railway yes, colonies = the Marsh. No Imperial ground. Little change in the channel. Warren was shorter and wider. Date 1873 – 1888. Have a go! Link
Note: If you are looking on your phone the slider that allows the fade to the Google satellite map may not work though you can still enjoy the detail of the old map. It is fine on the computer.
