Eton And Eton Wick 1899
Eton and Eton Wick in 1899 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 sheetlines of the original Buckinghamshire series are rather unkind to Eton, cutting right through the College Cloisters, so the publishers have provided a double-sided map. The main map covers the centre of the College and the area westward to North Field, Eton Great Common, South Field; beyond is Eton Wick, with St John the Baptist church, which became a civil parish in its own right in 1894; also Eton Cottage Hospital, and New Town. In the south-west corner is Windsor Race Course with its grandstand. In the town Barnespool Bridge and part of the High Street are shown, also
Folly Bridge, cemetery, St John`s church, gas works, Science School. On the reverse is over half of adjacent sheet 56.06 covering the eastern part of the College, Fifteen Arch Bridge, Beggar`s Bridge, Eton College Laundry. To the north-east is the hamlet of Mirk and the southern fringe of Slough, including Upton Court and St Lawrence`s church. In the south is part of the Public Recreation Ground, with the LSWR Windsor line looping through across the Thames. Together with maps covering Windsor and Slough this title forms a block of four maps.About the Alan Godfrey Editions of the 25” OS Series:Selected towns in Great Britain and Ireland are covered by maps showing the extent of urban development in the last decades of the 19th and early 20th century. The plans have been taken
from the Ordnance Survey mapping and reprinted at about 15 inches to one mile (1:4, 340). On the reverse most maps have historical notes and many also include extracts from contemporary directories. Most maps cover about one mile (1.6kms) north/south, one and a half miles (2.4kms) across; adjoining sheets can be combined to provide wider coverage.FOR MORE INFORMATION AND A COMPLETE LIST OF ALL AVAILABLE TITLES PLEASE CLICK ON THE SERIES LINK.
