@bkgbund.bsky.social💧 Quickborn klingt schnell, hat mit Geschwindigkeit aber nichts zu tun. Der Name geht auf „Queckbörn“ zurück: eine Wasserstelle, an der einst das „Queck“ 🐄 (also das Vieh bzw. die „lebende Habe“ eines Bauern) getränkt wurde. 🗺️ #MapMonday #LustigeOrtsnamen

@tony-colnbrook-ops.bsky.socialThe LiDAR also show the mess (damage) done by gravel extraction in the lower Colne Valley around Colnbrook #OnePlaceStudy #MapMonday Good thing I’m not studying Wraysbury, most of the agricultural land has gone. One of the few areas left are Ankerwycke and Magna Carta Island.
@oneplacestudies.bsky.socialThis newly-added mapping may be of interest to those with #OnePlaceStudies in England and Wales. #MapMonday
@bcsmaps.bsky.social#MapMonday On this day in 1968, The Beatles' single "Hey Jude" hit number 1 and stayed there for nine weeks! We adore this fantasy map of all things The Beatles made by LyricRealms www.etsy.com/listing/1282...
All together now: 🎶 Na, na, na, na na na naaaa 🎶

@bkgbund.bsky.social🗺️ Wer durch Deutschland reist, landet erstaunlich oft in „-hausen“.🏠 Diese Orte entstanden meist während der fränkischen Besiedlung im frühen Mittelalter.
👉 Was ist euer Lieblings-hausen? #Ortsnamen #MapMonday

@ihtaria.bsky.socialFethard's walls are more than monuments. They define a medieval landscape where market, church, streets and gateways still tell the story of an ambitious Anglo-Norman borough and the community that sustained it for over 800 years
#MapMonday #IHTA
@ihtaria.bsky.socialWithin the walls stood some of Fethard's most impressive medieval buildings.
Holy Trinity parish church, the Augustinian friary, Court Castle and Edmond's Castle reveal a wealthy urban community whose commercial and religious life was concentrated inside the walled enclosure
#MapMonday #IHTA
@ihtaria.bsky.socialThe only surviving medieval town gate is North Gate, built in the 15th century.
Other gates once punctuated the circuit, including Water Gate, Pierce's Gate, Sparrow Gate and Madam Castle, a fortified gate tower at the western entrance that survived until the 19th century.
#MapMonday #IHTA
@ihtaria.bsky.socialVisitors approaching the market had to pass through gates and negotiate deliberately angled streets. Routes from North Gate, Water Gate and Sparrow Gate did not lead directly to the market but guided people through the town's controlled urban space.
