To the North this Map commemorates the Battle of Flodden and the fall of King James IV. To the South, of course, lies Hadrian's Wall. In between are celebrated Sir Charles Parsons who invented the steam turbine, Admiral Collingwood who fought with Nelson and William Carr who once vaulted a five-bar gate with a large woman on his arm. You will also find the famous cheviot sheep and a recipe for singin' hinnies.

Publication Essentials
Poster-sized and litho printed on quality card in numbered limited editions, this is one in a series of pre-1974 county area Maps. Designed for framing and to stimulate conversation, JL Carr created the Maps as a way to present an optimistic set of testimonials to our indigenous, daring and buoyant forbears and to hearten those Englishmen who hope for a rekindling of the spirit which has enlivened our nation through its chequered history. These architectural, historical, literary and pictorial curiosities are not to be used for navigation; except in the broadest of terms.
