We have published more than 1,800 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 Brentford:
This busy, fascinating map captures the centre of Brentford and the area to the west, stretching as far as Syonhill Farm and Wyke House; and from Brentford Dock northward to Boston House and White Stile Road. It is a map of contrasts, with all the bustle of Brentford in the east half of the map, and many orchards in the western half. Features include Brentford Dock, numerous wharves, the River Brent and Grand Junction Canal, High Street and New Brentford, The Butts, the LSWR railway and Brentford station, the GWR Brentford Branch with its station, Brentford End, Town Hall, Windmill Road, malthouses, Thames Soap Works, St Lawrence's church and cemetery, the northern tip of Syon Park. A splendid map of a Middlesex town that should be better known.
An index map showing the areas covered by this and adjacent maps is available here. The map links up with London Sheets 70 South Ealing to the north, 84 Kew to the east, 96 Isleworth to the south; and with Middlesex Sheet 20.03 Osterley Park to the west.
