Christopher Saxton is known as ‘The Father of English Cartography’.

He came to the attention of Thomas Seckford, Master of the Queen’s Requests and was introduced to Lord Burghley and Queen Elizabeth I.

With their patronage, he surveyed counties in England and Wales and created the first national atlas, one of the earliest of any country in Europe.
