Revised New Colour Series Sheet Maps

Sheet Maps

Maps drawn 1896 - 1904 capture the variety of the natural landscape and the human influence of Britain’s late-Victorian heyday in delicate shades of sepia, blue and ochre.

These maps are taken from Ordnance Survey's Revised New Series (in colour) maps which were first published between 1896 and 1904. They have all been carefully scanned, digitally re-projected and enlarged to match the present-day Ordnance Survey Landranger® series. Each Popular Edition map is directly comparable with the corresponding Ordnance Survey Landranger® and uses the same sheet number and grid references, so enabling the past and the present to be compared with ease and accuracy. All the Revised New Series maps of England & Wales (122 in all) have now been published. Revised New Series maps have the same name, reference number and coverage as the appropriate Ordnance Survey Landranger®.
