You might also be interested in a 14th C 
Italian copy of Sacro Bosco's Sphaera which is
kept at UCL. 

Now for a bit of trivia. Sacro Bosco of course means
Holywood. He originates from Halifax. I vaguely
remember having read that Halifax was called
Holywood before, but whenever I mentioned this 
bit of trivia to my Yorkshire colleagues and
friends, I was met with sheer incredulity. 
Anybody know for sure?

Cheers, Rene
