Stafford and Telford

These maps are based on Britain’s first national mapping project, the One-Inch (‘Old Series’) Ordnance Survey maps which were first published between 1805 and 1874. They have all been carefully scanned, digitally re-projected and enlarged to match the present-day Ordnance Survey Landranger® Map series. Each Timeline Historical Map is directly comparable with the corresponding Ordnance Survey Landranger® map and uses the same sheet number and grid references, so enabling the past and the present to compared with ease and accuracy. All the Old Series maps of England & Wales (123 in all) have now been published
