 Tithe maps of Bath & North East Somerset

 Tithe maps were drawn up in the 1840s and are divided by parish and are often the earliest complete maps of these parishes. They identify plots of land which were listed in the apportionment, providing details of land ownership and occupation, and the type of cultivation of the land. We can only provide images of the maps, not copies of the apportionments. Please see this guide for further details.
