    Abstract

    Armagh's rich history is fairly clearly inscribed in its landscape, particularly in the enduring configuration of a core around the cathedral, which is evident in the first 'colonial' maps of the ruinous settlement in the early seventeenth century, and a series of important cadastral surveys in the eighteenth century. Armagh's topographical history has been significantly influenced by the fact of its ownership largely by the archbishop.
