I am no Shakespeare expert (only an admirer) so I don't know how you arrived at the location for Antioch in your placemarks; maybe there is a particular reason for you placing it just so. If that is the case, please accept my apologies for this post.
That said, the generally accepted location of the ancient city is modern day Antakya ( 36°12'13.87"N 36° 9'46.60"E).
I hope this is useful and many thanks for all the work you have undertaken.
Thanks for the tweak... your update will appear in the latest update of this collection!

I know this is being far too pedantic now, but if you moved your placemark 1 km or so NW ish of where it is (to 37°56'20.65"N 27°20'27.63"E) you would be standing right in front of the famous 'Library' that is typically shown when one sees a picture of Ephesus - Only the facade of the building still remains standing; a few yards to the west of this location - you can see its shadow quite clearly.
Sorry, hope this is intersting rather than irritating?!

I'm thrilled with this new site and will incorporate it into my summer term Shakespeare course at Dartmouth. However, why is Syracuse not marked as the home of Egeon and the Antipholi from Comedy of Errors?

According to Stow's A SURVEY OF LONDON (1603), the Earl of Gloucester's castle is Baynards castle, nothing above ground level remains but there are some foundations preserved beneath modern buildings on Lower Thames St. London.

According to David and Ben Crystal in Shakespeare's Words (Penguin, 2002), Gaultree is now Sutton-on-the-Forest, North Yorkshire.
I can't find the reference to Langley in Richard II at 3:4 -- are you sure?
And there are other places you don't mention -- for example, the Bishop of Ely's strawberry garden, mentioned in Richard III 3:4, is at Ely Place, Holborn in central London.

It appears user H21 has been offline for quite sometime, so I took the responsibility of updating his fantastic collection with the corrections that have been discussed in this thread. Further, I have begun to reorganize his collection and make it more user-friendly. (Please check back in the coming days for further upgrades!  )
I want to make it clear that I am not claiming this collection as my work, but rather updating H21's work. All of H21's original posts (and placemarks) have not been edited in any way. In the future, I hope H21 will return to this Community and add even further to his wonderful collections.
If users have new additions or corrections, I encourage them to reply in this thread. Now, these corrections will be made quickly. I am a fan of Shakespeare, but no expert, so I can't make decisions that require a lot of academic knowledge about Shakespeare. Enjoy, and feedback is welcomed!
