Hornchurch in 1915 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. The map has Hornchurch High Street in the north-east; the sheetlines are not very kind & so Church Street is cut off by the margins & the church itself beyond the map. Coverage continues south along Station Road to Hornchurch station & west to Rainham Road. It, therefore, really covers the western part of a town which in 1886 was called ”one of the quaintest towns one could wish to see, with its straggling streets... & its general disregard for the amenities of locomotion”. It still remained much the same in 1915, & west of the town this map portrays a rural landscape. Station Road, Abbs Cross Road, Hornchurch Road, Rainham Road are the principal roads crossing the map, each with just a handful of buildings. Top centre are Hornchurch Cottage Homes, developed in 1886 for the orphans `and other needy` children of St Leonard, Shoreditch. 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. ...
