Historical geographer and urban morphologist

I joined GAP in 1999 as lecturer in human geography. I began my academic career at the University of Birmingham, gaining a PhD in 1995. In 1996 I was awarded a British Academy Post-Doctoral Fellowship and took this up at Royal Holloway (University of London) in the Department of Geography. At Queen's I primarily teach modules on urban, cultural and historical geography, in both contemporary and historical contexts. This continues a long tradition of teaching historical geography at Queen's. I am Programme Director for the School’s Heritage Science taught postgraduate programme, contributing modules on cultural heritage and historic landscapes, and spatial technologies and heritage science. Currently, I also teach undergraduate modules on urban landscapes (GAP3034), cultural geographies (GGY2041), research methods (GGY2024), and human geography (GGY1005).

Research interests and expertise

My research interests are in historical geography, landscape history and urban morphology. Broadly I use mapping and cartography as interpretative frames to explore the materiality and imagining of space, place and landscape during the later Middle Ages (CE 1000-1500). This brings me into close contact with other medievalists in disciplines such as history and archaeology. While I am one of the very few geographers working in the UK on the middle ages, medieval historical geography has been and continues to be a very distinctive aspect of research in the Geography at Queen's, making contributions that reach across a range of disciplines concerned with the medieval past.

My research has two key intellectual contexts:

First, in the context of digital humanities research:

  •  I use spatial technologies to explore and understand the medieval world. This work began in 2003 with a project called 'Mapping the Medieval Urban Landscape' – funded by the Arts and Humanities Research Council (running from June 2003 to May 2005) – which used GIS and GPS to map and analyse medieval urban forms in 3D. The project focused on a group of 'new towns' established in the reign of Edward I in England and Wales between 1277 and 1307. The project web-site has more detailed information (http://www.qub.ac.uk/urban_mapping). The project resulted in an interactive online atlas of medieval towns, a digital resource for a wide public audience hosted by Archaeology Data Service at the University of York (available at http://archaeologydataservice.ac.uk/archives/view/atlas_ahrb_2005).
  • A further, related project, ‘Mapping the Realm’ (funded by the British Academy) also used GIS, this time to create a digital version of the medieval 'Gough map' of Britain, work completed in collaboration with the Bodleian Library in Oxford (for more details see http://www.qub.ac.uk/urban_mapping/gough_map). The web-served GIS resource that resulted from this research, the Digital Gough, is also accessible via http://www.bodley.ox.ac.uk/users/nnj/goughmap.htm, while the analytical results of the project published in the Annals of the AAG and Imago Mundi.
  • A further, third, GIS-based mapping project is ‘Mapping medieval Chester’, funded by the AHRC (2008-09); a collaborative project with literary historians at Swansea University (Catherine Clarke and Helen Fulton) exploring literary and visual mappings of the medieval city. The web-resource resulting from this project was developed with the Department of Digital Humanities (DDH) at King’s College London and is accessible at: http://www.medievalchester.ac.uk.
  • Further funding from the AHRC (via its ‘Beyond Text’ programme) is enabling me to continue research on the Gough Map. This project, called “Linguistic Geographies”, has created an online version of the map – see www.goughmap.org – in collaboration with DDH at King’s College London and with the Bodleian Library, Oxford. The project was completed in 2011, culminating with a colloquium and exhibition at the Bodleian Library.
  • Continuing the earlier ‘Mapping Medieval Chester’ has been made possible in 2012 by AHRC funding of a Knowledge Transfer Fellowship, and a project called ‘Discovering Medieval Chester’ which is building new interactive resources for interpreting the city, including web-applications for a wide range of virtual and in-situ visitors to Chester. This again is research that involves the Department of Digital Humanities at King’s College London, as well as the University of Southampton.
  • From January 2013 a new AHRC funded project will start focused on the city of Swansea and its medieval urban landscapes, bringing together textual and material cultures through multimedia mappings, drawing again from collaboration between the Department of Digital Humanities at King’s College London and the University of Southampton, along with heritage stakeholders within Swansea, including GGAT.
  • Together, these projects demonstrate the role that historical geographers have in the fast-moving world of digital humanities research, as well as the potential spatial technologies have in medieval studies. Within QUB, this ongoing work represents a strand of GAP’s Spatial Technologies Research Unit (STRU), while beyond Queen’s I am leading a new European research network called Spatial Technologies and the Medieval City (SteMCity) connecting archaeologists, historians and geographers working at the Universities of Granada, Toulouse, Padua, Antwerp, Liverpool and York – for more details see http://www.lettere.unipd.it/discant/CatMedievale/STM_home.html

Secondly, in the context of medieval studies:

  •  I am also pursuing an intellectual research agenda based upon the premise that geographers have much to contribute to medievalists’ debates and the humanities ‘spatial turn’ through our particular geographical ‘way of seeing’ the world. To this end I have spent much of the past decade arguing that geographers need to engage more with the medieval period. This I have done through working on the medieval city, looking at urban ideals and practices in the context of medieval Europe.
  • This work is published in several journal articles, for example in the Transactions of the Institute of British Geographers and Environment and Planning D: Society and Space, as well as in a book-length study (published in 2009 by Reaktion Books) called City and Cosmos: the medieval world in urban form (further details and testimonials at http://www.reaktionbooks.co.uk/book.html?id=367). This builds upon the work I have done (and continue to do) on medieval urban forms - mapping medieval urban landscapes - but considers more the symbolism that urban forms had in the medieval imagination.
  • My approach has been to study medieval theories of the city, though using contemporary depictions and descriptions, as well as medieval political and natural philosophy, scientific treatises and theological texts. This has revealed the importance of the metaphorical associations between the city and the cosmos in the middle ages, connections I believe that were important not only in how the city was imagined in the Latin west by the Christian faithful, but also in how it was formed as a material built space, through urban planning and design, and how it was experienced as a lived space by those who were there, particularly at certain times of the year in various local civic rituals and performances.
  • A continuation of this theorized work on medieval urbanism, and building upon the findings of my AHRC ‘Mapping the Medieval Urban Landscape’ project, was made possible thanks to a Leverhulme Research Fellowship. This enabled me to draft a new book, provisionally called Urban Realms: the poetics, politics and practices of town-founding under Plantagenet kings, which explores the urban exploits and imaginations particularly of King Edward I. The focus is on the textual cultures that informed royal policies on founding new towns, as well as the material cultures of the processes that formed new urban landscapes which reshaped British geography under Plantagenet rule in the late thirteenth and fourteenth centuries.
  • Latterly, and largely as a consequence of analyzing the Gough Map using GIS, I have begun to look in more depth at geographical knowledge and ideas in the Middle Ages, exploring more broadly medieval cosmography, cartography and geography, and this has received a helpful boost through my convening (with the late Denis Cosgrove) an Ahmanson Foundation funded conference at the Center for Medieval Studies at UCLA (May 2009) on the subject of ‘Mapping medieval geographies’ – a subject largely neglected by geography’s historians today – further details of which are available at http://www.cmrs.ucla.edu/programs/conferences.html).
  • I have edited essays for a forthcoming volume called Mapping Medieval Geographies, due to be published by Cambridge University Press in 2013. This interest in visual and textual spatial representations of medieval Europe is continuing through my own work on medieval cartography, for example on the Gough Map, as well as through organising international colloquia, such as “The Language of Maps” colloquium (held in Oxford in June 2011, see www.goughmap.org/colloquium), and themed sessions on medieval cartography and geography convened at the Royal Geographical Society Annual Conference 2010, and the International Medieval Congress in 2010 and 2011.
  • Through pursuing these agendas my principal aim is to ensure that the medieval period remains a visible and viable presence upon geography’s disciplinary ‘map’, while at the same time demonstrating to medievalists in cognate subjects, such as history, archaeology and architecture, how geographers have so much still to contribute to ongoing debates. Evidence of this direction is my recent work published internationally in peer-reviewed journals (2009) in the Annals of the Association of American Geographers and Imago Mundi, as well as (2011) in Dialogues in Human Geography.
