Interactive Millennium Map
In 2000 some village residents produced the Millennium Map
pictured above and some of these went on to form the Walberton History Group.
Since then the History Group has collected a growing number
of archives relating to the village and this site is intended to make a few of
these available for general use.
These featured places are indicated as "Hot Spots"
and are located by moving the cursor around the map
We have also used the Millennium Map coordinates to
indicate the location of the places included. It is divided into squares
lettered A to K from left to right and 1 to 7 from top to bottom.
