These roads, fanning out from London throughout the country and connecting almost every major town and city, dramatically diminished travel-times, frequently to an astonishing degree, with a journey to Edinburgh from London being reduced from around 256 hours in 1700 to 60 in 1800 and a journey from London to Exeter reduced from 240 hours to 32 over the same period. The superior surfaces of the road allowed a great increase in freight, as well as requiring fewer horses for the transport of the goods.</p><p>Part of the <a href=\"~/link.aspx?_id=54724150141E4772A25006A7D61009FA&amp;_z=z\">King&rsquo;s Topographical Collection</a > , Paterson & rsquo;s <i> British Itinerary </i>, though clearly focused on the roads and direction of travel, includes some topographical features and places of interest outside of the necessary towns and coaching inns. Thus, on Maps 3 and 4, we see the principal country seats with the names of their owners appended, as well as &lsquo;Caesars Camp&rsquo;, an ancient hill fort near Potton.</p ></span>"]}
