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. 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, published mostly in black & white, have been taken from the Ordnance Survey mapping at 1:2, 500 (25” to 1 mile) & reprinted at about 15 inches to one mile (1:4, 340). They cover towns in great detail, showing individual houses & property boundaries, railway tracks, factories, churches, mills, canals, tramways & even minutiae such as dockside cranes, fountains, signal posts, pathways, sheds, wells, etc. On the reverse most maps have historical notes on the area concerned. Many also include extracts from contemporary directories, listing local inhabitants or businesses house by house. The maps are ideal for local historians, transport historians, family historians, or simply those with an interest in the town they live in or have visited. SHEET REFERENCE NUMBERS: Alan Godfrey’s reproductions use the sheet reference sequence of the original Ordnance Survey’s maps which were arranged by county. We recommend, therefore, viewing the series by a county or a city location rather than the whole list.PLEASE NOTE: The maps are highly detailed so they do not present a large area. Most maps cover about one & a half square miles: normally one mile (1.6kms) north/south, & one & a half miles (2.4kms) across. Adjoining sheets can be assembled together to provide wider coverage. ...

Popular hiking areas of Great Britain & Ireland on waterproof & tear-resistant, mostly double-sided, contoured & GPS compatible maps from Harvey Map Services in their Superwalker series at 1:25, 000 or 1:30, 000, annotated with additional information for walkers. Selected areas are now also available as pocket-size Ultramaps at 1:40, 000, also waterproof & tear-resistant & with the same cartography & additional information as their corresponding Superwalker titles. The reduction in the map scale of the Ultramaps means that place names are in smaller size print. The mapping has contours at 15m intervals, with additional graphics for various types of terrain (crags, large boulders, scattered rocks) & colouring for different kinds of land use or vegetation (pastures, bogs, forests or woodl&, etc). The maps show local hiking paths, indicating, where appropriate, long-distance routes, & boundaries of national parks or other protected areas. Scottish titles also indicate Munro, Corbett & Graham hills. Some maps in addition highlight local cycle routes. A range of symbols mark various facilities for walkers including youth or independent hostels, campsites & caravan sites, information points, etc. Each map has a 1-km British or Irish national grid.PLEASE NOTE: in addition to this series, more map titles from Harvey Map Services are listed on our website in the following series: Summit Maps at 1:12, 500 (SI00002060), Mountain Maps at 1:40, 000 (SI00000867), Long-distance Hiking Trails Maps at 1:40, 000 (SI00000524), plus Cycling & Other Recreational Maps at various scales (SI00002027). ...
