Who Were the Marcher Lords? An Innovative Project to Understand their Cultural Significance

Welcome to the official website of the Mapping the March project. We’ll be adding more content as our research progresses, and we aim to build this into a rich interactive source of information about the medieval March of Wales. We would welcome your feedback about the project. Read the ‘About’ section which describes the project and let us know if you have any suggestions about what we might include on the site.
