We have published more than 2,000 maps in our series of Old Ordnance Survey Map reprints, some 300 of them in the London area. The maps are highly detailed. They are taken from the OS 1:2,500 (or 25 inch) maps and reduced to about 15 inches to the mile. They show streets with individual houses, tram tracks, railway tracks and even signals, factories, wharves and such details as fountains and water troughs. They will provide hours of fascination for historians and genealogists. The maps are neatly folded and each includes a specially written introduction to the area. Maps can be purchased on our On-line Mapshop where further information about titles is given. For other information and Prices, see Index Page.
Here are the details of maps for Battersea & Fulham:
We have published two versions of this map, showing how the area developed across the years. The map covers part of Fulham on the north side of the Thames, Battersea on the south. Coverage stretches from Eel Brook Common eastward to Albert Road and Latchmere Road, from Chelsea Creek southward to the northern tip of Clapham Junction station. Features on the Fulham side include (on the 1894 version) Sands End, Chelsea Basin, Imperial Road, Town Mead Road, Wandsworth Bridge Road (more of Fulham is on sheets 86 and 99); some streets, eg Stephendale Road, are still being laid out. The Battersea side is much busier, and includes (1866 version) St Mary's church, Belmont Works, Christ Church, St John's College, the north/east part of Clapham Junction station, Battersea New Bridge, West London Extension Railway, incl Battersea station. The 1894 version has same coverage but with more development, incl numerous works and wharves along river,tramways. A portion of Battersea Park is in the NE corner, Battersea Town Hall is in the SE corner.
An index map showing the areas covered by this and adjacent maps is available here. The map links up with London Sheets 87 Chelsea to the north, 99 Putney Bridge to the west, 101 Battersea & Clapham to the east, and 114 Wandsworth to the south.
