Apologies all - I thought I had just sent my original e-mail to Neil! The two websites I have cited are essentially documentary resources. The latter, Early English Books Online, is a site where you can access scanned copies of medieval and early modern texts. I have found this particularly useful with respect to original copies of agricultural treatises. Best Wishes Richard -----Original Message----- From: Thomas, Dr R.M.

Dear all Our own MSRG website has a section of 'Links' to useful sites - organisations, national or regional, plus some project-oriented sites. I think it needs a bit of updating, maybe organising into themes, and ceratinly would benefit from some recommendations for new links. Can members suggest a set of current and active sites of value to the group? For example, i'd nominate a new one, just starting and due to be updated regularly, linked to the Historic Village Atlas: see the useful Northumberland National Park pages at: www.northumberland-national-park.org.uk/VisitorGuide/TimesPast Are there many new project sites to note? Personally i think my own Wallingford one is worthy of a perusal - due to update also (don't they all!): http://www.le.ac.uk/ar/njc10/wallingford_project/ More broadly, what makes a GOOD website? lots of pictures? Strong academic text? extra links? references? interaction? Colour? Let me know! Maybe we can put a Top Ten list of medieval sites together NC Dr. Neil CHRISTIE Hon Sec.
