Welcome to the online atlas of  Alexander J. Ellis's The Existing Phonology of English Dialects (EPED). The EPED, which was published in 1889, is our chief source of information of the phonetics and phonology (and much more besides) of traditional English and Scots dialects in the second half of the 19th century. Follow the links in the side panel to view maps of the EPED data and to find out about Ellis's methods and this project.
