The aim of John Revie’s Balmanno Street One-Place Study, just registered with us, is to focus on one street – Balmanno (or Balmano) Street in #Glasgow – and to reconstruct its community from its inception in 1792 until its final clearance and demolition in the 1960s. #OnePlaceWednesday
Balmanno Street One-Place Study. Image: An extract from an old, large-scale Ordnance Survey map showing Balmano (a.k.a. Balmanno) Street, running North-South in the middle of the map extract - and surrounding streets in this built-up part of the City of Glasgow. Nearby streets include Paterson Street, Tarbett Street, Dean Street, Portland Street, Garden Street, George Street (running roughly East-West at the South end of Balmano Street) and Nicholas Street. In addition to lots of residential buildings, a church, two schools, and a public house. URL: www.one-place-studies.org/studies/ One-Place Studies, where family history and local history unite.

Alternate cartographer RvBOMally did the Monster Mash! And by that I mean he created a timeline where famous monsters from fiction and folklore battle it out for global domination.

Happy #mapmonday #ttrpgcommunity!

Next Friday, we go back to the desert - as we wish for heat as we head into winter, eh? - to find a cool, hidden waterway nestled in the cracks and crevices of the rocks and sand!

Coming next week!

Lots of people seemed to really enjoy last week's #MapMonday addition to SABRE Maps of 158 newly georeferenced 1:25k maps from 1945-6. How to top that? Maybe adding another 339 map sheets from 1947? Freely available to everyone, though we never say no to donations! buff.ly/RkSn0mk

📍 Gleiche Endung, andere Herkunft: Orte auf -by finden sich vor allem in Schleswig-Holstein und an der Elbe. Doch während -by im Norden meist aus dem Dänischen stammt und „Dorf“ bedeutet, geht es an der Elbe auf das altsächsische „bogi“ für „Biegung“ zurück. #MapMonday #schongewusst
Deutschlandkarte auf dunkelgrauem Hintergrund. Oben steht die Überschrift „Ortsnamen, die auf -by enden“. Die Deutschlandkarte ist hellblau dargestellt, die Grenzen der Bundesländer sind als dünne graue Linien eingezeichnet. Kleine blaue Punkte markieren Orte mit der Endung „-by“. Sie konzentrieren sich vor allem im Norden Schleswig-Holsteins. Vier weitere Punkte befinden sich im Bereich der Elbe in Sachsen-Anhalt. Unten rechts ist das weiße BKG-Logo zu sehen.

It's still #MapMonday, so here's a map set in my game Tyrannis.

Thought I'd experiment by having it be an in-universe paper test.

You can get Tyrannis for $2 at the #Steam #Autumnsale: bit.ly/Tyrannis

What kind of world would produce the insanity inducing play The King in Yellow? Nathan Goldwag has tried to make such a world in a loving (and terrifying) homage to the horror works of the early 20th century. Read more here: nathangoldwag.wordpress.com/2026/06/25/t...

🗺️ Nordic economies may face common external shocks, but regional trajectories can be very different.

This #MapMonday maps annualised GDP per capita change across Nordic regions, 2019–2024. Cities are strong, but rural regions had the highest median growth.
