!EVDemo/Data/t/Text/Text5

This website contains an archive of files for the Acorn Electron, BBC Micro, Acorn Archimedes, Commodore 16 and Commodore 64 computers, which Dominic Ford has rescued from his private collection of floppy disks and cassettes.

Some of these files were originally commercial releases in the 1980s and 1990s, but they are now widely available online. I assume that copyright over them is no longer being asserted. If you own the copyright and would like files to be removed, please contact me.

The importance of the chronological study of history has been highlighted in the National Curriculum published in January 1995. Through Time Chart the user can access the historical material by means of a chronological chart of the period.

Set on a full colour image that illustrates different aspects of the six themes of Industry, Transport, At Work, Domestic Life, Leisure and Education, Time Chart includes dates of inventions, Acts of Parliament, developments in the home and industry, and major events, these form a full chronological overview of British history from 1700 to 1850. By clicking on any of the dates or events the extensive database is entered at the relevent section.
