The Cheshire HLC project recorded the visible evidence of human history, which forms the modern landscape. This has been achieved by identifying landscape attributes from a range of historical maps. These attributes are categorised into a series of Groups, Types and Sub-types and their extent mapped and analysed using a Geographic Information System (GIS). This work enabled the historic character of any given area to be presented cartographically together with the historic processes which formed it.
