Olney 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 map is double-sided for maximum coverage. The main map covers the northern part of the town, including the High Street, station, River Ouse, & extending eastward to Newton Lodge & Lavendon Mill. On the reverse is a good section of adjacent sheet 5.03 & this is the busier map; it extends coverage south to show the southern part of the town, including Market Place, church, Cowper`s House, Tannery, Silver End, Near Town, brewery, plus the village of Clifton Reynes with St Mary`s church. 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.
