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 shown. 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, Ireland and Wales.
This map of Old St Pancras as it was between 1871-1894. This will delight local
historians, genealogists and all who are interested in the history of this
region.
Also included is an introduction to the history of the area by Alan Godfrey,
together with smaller map on the back.
To date over 1300 titles have been reproduced in this series by Alan Godfrey
Maps. For details on those available, please visit their website Alan Godfrey
