Educators

Education is at the heart of everything we do. Our Key Stage 2 initiative, 'Place Detectives', is where we create teaching materials for primary schools based on our cartography. Extracts from our maps are also frequently reproduced for museums, exhibitions and academic works.

Local Communities

We love that our maps give communities a sense of civic pride, belonging and custodianship. Knowledge is power, and being aware of a town's history gives locals the confidence to make better planning decisions about their built environments and preserve their urban heritage.

General Public

Engaging the public with free walks and talks is one of the many ways in which we're able to demonstrate the impact of urban events and communities over time. We often partner with historical, archaeological and arts organisations to bring the past to life in new and interesting ways.

Praise for Place Detectives
from Shoscombe Church School, Bath

'engaging and accessible for pupils, helping them develop a strong sense of place and connection to their city.'
'high-quality enquiry-based learning, encouraging children to ask questions, investigate evidence and draw conclusions.'
'time-saving for teachers, offering ready-to-use materials that can still be easily adapted to suit individual classrooms.'
