The large scale plans of the Ordnance Survey are quite unique. In a clear and attractive manner they have portrayed the English towns and villages in details over the last 150 years. They show not just the streets, but virtually every house; the complete track layouts of railways and tramways are given; factories, mills and docks are all shows. The maps contain all the fascinating minutiae that is the lifeblood of history and have become the most complete record of the places where our ancestors lived and worked.

The Godfrey Edition is a major undertaking to reprint these maps, in a convenient and affordable form, for towns throughout Britain and Ireland. This map of Haworth and Lees in 1906 will delight local historians, genealogists and all who are interested in the history of the area. There is an introduction to the history of the street by Alan Godfrey, together with extracts from a contemporary directory.
