Also useful in genealogy research. In one of the old maps I found a street
(now disappeared) where some ancestors lived.

I guess that the latter might probably be the case. Nonetheless it would
be interesting to see what NatSurf can do with it in the fullness of time.

Well, KYP is of course of some limited interest, but at least three men
and a dog locally definitely think it's a great idea. As a community
project I feel that it has merit. It certainly is of historical interest
and has come up with a number of surprises for me.

The Know Your Place site itself (http://kypwest.org.uk) seems to load 
OK, but the indiv geographical areas you call pages from the Bristol 
city council site, e.g. http://maps.bristol.gov.uk/kyp/?edition=glos

The page for the exhibition at Wells (near me) is also hosted on an 
outside site (https://bishopspalace.org.uk), and Netsurf unforch has 
pictures on top of text etc.  I know not whether the shortcoming is in 
Netsurf or in nonstandard coding of the site, of course.

But thanks for the pointer, Brian.  Will mention Know Your Place in 
the local conservation newsletter I do.

The site now seems to load but accessing individual geographic areas gets
the following,

Proxy Error

The proxy server received an invalid response from an upstream server.
The proxy server could not handle the request GET /kyp/southglos.

Reason: Error reading from remote server

I went, I looked...
And for balance, I didn't find the site interesting...

What's more, it didn't display very well in NetSurf.

This looks to a really interesting site but unfortunately doesn't work
under NetSurf, which I guess is a Javascript problem. Are we very far off,
perhaps?
