The map, based on digitized OS maps of Alnwick and Alnmouth from around 1920, presents a vibrant and detailed depiction of the area's Anglo-Saxon and medieval past. It features important buildings highlighted, along with an introduction to the area's history on the cover and an extensive gazetteer of historic sites on the reverse. The back of the map showcases early views of buildings, monuments, and street scenes in Alnwick and Alnmouth, adding a visual dimension to the historical narrative. The map was created by a collaborative effort involving representatives from various historical societies in Alnwick and Alnmouth, individuals with local knowledge, and curators of local historical collections, including the Duke of Northumberland's archives and Bailiffgate Museum. The team's previous works have focused on different aspects of the area's history, including the town itself, local heritage heroes, the Abbey, the Shrovetide Football Game, and the district during the Great War.
