Survey Review
• At least two to three Surveyors were deployed– Writing styles and spelling vary
• Survey broken down– By street– By property
• With linear boundary dimensions
• Coggeshall Hall land excluded– No dimensions at all

Process undertaken for each Street
• Reformat the survey, retaining only key data
• Review the English Heritage Listings for each property
• Draw a 1575 plot overlay• Cross reference original survey, plot
overlay dimensions, listing information and current street house numbers
![Page 8: Mapping Coggeshall from the 1575 Rental Survey](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062409/568145b2550346895db2b607/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Survey measurements used
• Basic units of measurement used,– perch or rod, rood and acre
• 1 perch = 16.5 feet = 5.03 meters– A perch can be a linear or area measurement
• 40 perches (area) = 1 rood
• 4 roods = 1 acre
• Map scale chosen 1:500
or 10mm :approx. 1 perch

Scope of the Rental Survey
![Page 10: Mapping Coggeshall from the 1575 Rental Survey](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062409/568145b2550346895db2b607/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Data Base
• Survey key information has been compiled into a Data Base comprising;– 230 line entries
• One for each Survey plot
– Each entry is given a unique reference number
– 25 fields• Name, street, tenement, close, mead, area, etc
– In excess of 5000 individual cells
![Page 11: Mapping Coggeshall from the 1575 Rental Survey](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062409/568145b2550346895db2b607/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Data Base
• Visibility into key elements of the survey
• Various reports can easily be produced– How many tenements did Thomas Paycocke
own? – Who were the major land owners?– How many orchards are there and what is the
acreage?
• Key input document for digitising the map

Digitising the map
• The draft hand drawn maps have been digitised by ECC
• The maps are digitised as additional layers referenced to the Ordinance Survey Master Map (OSMM)
• ECC have agreed to “curate” the maps and they will be stored on their computer
![Page 17: Mapping Coggeshall from the 1575 Rental Survey](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062409/568145b2550346895db2b607/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Digitising the map
• Digitising– Each plot is represented by a “polygon”– Each polygon is cross referenced to the Data
Base unique number– For each plot all of the information relating to
the relevant Data Base line entry is recorded within the mapping computer system
![Page 18: Mapping Coggeshall from the 1575 Rental Survey](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062409/568145b2550346895db2b607/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)

Digitising the map
• Map Layers, select from a “pick list”– OSMM current plot and building layer– Water– Roads– Contours– 1575 plot layer etc– Text including the Data Base

• Still to complete– Finish A0 size maps (ECC printer problems)– Develop on line interactive access – Review field areas and show on map
Outstanding work
