This map of 1797 shows the Bampton Hundred and the fields. There is also a map of St Giles in Oxford at this time. Today, Kelmscott is spelt with two Ts but on this map it has one.
This map is from 1913 and covers the area from Marsh Lane on the eastern edge of Clanfield west across Weald. However, all of Bridge Street, half the Talbot Inn, the west side of the Market Square, the South side of Church Street and Church View are all in Weald and they are not shown here, possibly because the map was for agricultural purposes. There are some very interesting notes added in pencil.
