Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
Points out the variability of medieval standards for the measurement of distances, noting the significance of this for the study of medieval town planning. The length of customary units differed not just between localities, but also according to the specific task to which a unit was applied. Reference is made to the early sixteenth-century treatise on surveying by Richard Benese, Canon of Merton Priory. | ||
