Tilbury Riverside And Gravesend Reach 1895
Tilbury Riverside and Gravesend Reach in 1895 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 covers an interesting area of the Thames, showing Tilbury Riverside on the north and Gravesend`s waterfront to the south. It does not include Tilbury Town but shows the (now closed) Riverside station, Tilbury Hotel, several railway junctions and lines into the docks. Also shown are the Tidal Basin, Worlds End pub, Tilbury Market. Tilbury Fort is shown, but sadly left blank for security reasons. On the Kent side are West Street, the LCDR pier, Clifton Baths, Town Pier and Royal Terrace Pier. The map also includes directories for West Tilbury and Chadwell
St Mary. Though the map does have a lot of water, mud and marshland it is a fascinating portrait of this Thames gateway, a reminder of Tilbury`s days as a major passenger embarkation point, if only for a day trips to Gravesend. To the south the map links up with (and slightly overlaps) Kent Sheet 10.07 Gravesend.About the Alan Godfrey Editions of the 25” OS SeriesSelected 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.
