I recently attended a Global Archive session at the Heritage Centre and one of the books on display was Saxton’s map of Norfolk. As part of an initiative to survey and map England and Wales in 1574, financed by Thomas Seckford and authorised by Elizabeth I, Saxton produced the below map of Norfolk. The end result is a lavish embellishment that has an ornamental value and well as a practical purpose.
Here is an article about Christopher Saxton:
