Old Ordnance Survey Maps of Buckinghamshire

Here are the maps we have published for Buckinghamshire. I have listed those for the Slough/Eton area separately, as they link up with some Berkshire maps for Windsor. Links to index maps are at the foot of the page. The maps are highly detailed, at approx 15 inches to the mile. Each includes an introduction, and most include extracts from contemporary directories. Further information about individual maps is given in our On-line Mapshop.

The following maps are all taken from the OS 25" maps and reduced to a scale of approximately 15 inches to the mile. They are extremely detailed, showing individual houses, details such as railway tracks, pathways, pubs, factories and even minutiae such as fountains and signal posts. Obviously they cover quite a small area, normally a mile by a mile and a half each. Information pages on individual maps are available; simply follow the links.
