This antique map, titled ‘Episcopatvs Dvnelmensis’ and created in 1665, shows an area of the United Kingdom during the early 17th Century. The title translates to ‘The Bishopric of Durham’, indicating that the map likely depicts the region around Durham, Spennymoor, and Crook. The United Kingdom during this time was a collection of disparate kingdoms and regions, with England and Scotland only united under one monarch in 1603. It was a time of great political and social upheaval, with religious conflicts and wars shaping the landscape of the country. This map provides a glimpse into the geographical and political landscape of the era, showing the boundaries of different regions and kingdoms, as well as the locations of important towns and cities.
