Map and A-Z Index
Map
The interactive map below features many markers pointing to Portland's sites-of-interest. By clicking on a marker, its name and a short description will show up in a box. By clicking the Article Link, this will take you to the history page of the selected marker.
The feature uses Google Maps. In the bottom left corner there is a bar to zoom in and out, while clicking and then dragging the mouse over the map will move it. Alternatively, the website's A-Z index is further down this page, and at the bottom is a search box.
Marker colours:
The blue markers indicate places of interest.
The red markers indicate villages and other major settlements/areas.
The black markers indicate sites of interest that no longer exist.
