Product Description

Lyme Regis in 1903 in a fascinating series of reproductions of old Ordnance Survey plans in the Alan Godfrey Editions, ideal for anyone interested in the history of their neighbourhood or family. Coverage extends west across the county boundary at Devonshire Head to Furze Close & Ware House. The map

Includes::
the harbour & famous Cobb, scene of episodes in Jane Austen`s Persuasion & John Fowles`s The French Lieutenant`s Woman. Other features include St Michael`s church, Guildhall, Broad Street, Coombe Street, disused cloth & silk mills, Jericho, Hatchet, Sidmouth Road, Lucy`s Ledge, Poulett House, Assembly Rooms, jetties, cement works, Chippel Bay, Cobb Gate Beach & Lower Ware. The railway station is at the top of the map. Within the old Ordnance Survey County Series the sheetlines for the Devon series covered Lyme Regis more neatly than did those for Dorset, which explains why Alan Godfrey Editions have used a Devon map & numbering. On the back is a 1911 directory for Lyme Regis, listing tradesmen, councillors etc. About the Alan Godfrey Editions of the 25” OS Series Selected towns in Great Britain & Ireland are covered by maps showing the extent of urban development in the last decades of the 19th & early 20th century. The plans have been taken from the Ordnance Survey mapping & reprinted at about 15 inches to one mile (1:4, 340). On the reverse most maps have historical notes & many also include extracts from contemporary directories. Most maps cover about one mile (1.6kms) north/south, one & a half miles (2.4kms) across; adjoining sheets can be combined to provide wider coverage.FOR MORE INFORMATION & A COMPLETE LIST OF ALL AVAILABLE TITLES PLEASE CLICK ON THE SERIES LINK.
