3D Tithe Map Kingsbury Village

This is the tithe map loaded with lidar data so height of the land can be seen. It has been coloured from blue at low lever to brown for higher ground so there is an indication of what might be exposed during flooding. Heights have been exaggerated 5x to allow an appreciation of the terrain.
