This book specifically examines the history of the concept of a North-South divide in England during the last millennium, a concept which has surfaced in recent political debates about regional contrasts in wealth and welfare in England. Concerned with different historical periods between 1086 and 2000, six essays examine both the material geography of England, in terms of its broad regional differences in population, economy, society and culture, and the geography of England as imagined by the people of those periods.

This book examines the history of the concept of a North-South divide in England during the last millennium. This concept has surfaced in recent political debates about regional contrasts in wealth and welfare in England, but it has deep historical roots. Each of six essays concerned with different historical periods between 1086 and 2000 examines both the material geography of England, in terms of its broad regional differences in population, economy, society and culture, and the geography of England as imagined by people in those periods.
Alan R. H. Baker is a Fellow of Emmanuel College, Cambridge, General Editor of Cambridge Studies in Historical Geography, and the author of numerous books and articles on historical geography, most recently Geography and History: Bridging the Divide (Cambridge, 1993). Mark Billinge is University Lecturer in Geography and a Fellow of Magdalene College, Cambridge. Dr Billinge was the co-editor (with Alan Baker) of the very first book in Cambridge Studies in Historical Geography, Period and Place (Cambridge, 1982).
