Old Ordnance Survey Maps of County Durham

This is our coverage of Darlington and Stockton.

See separate pages for the maps of Co Durham or Hartlepool.

  • Both Darlington and Stockton are now unitary autthorities. For a summary of Durham's local government history visit This Page.
  • All maps are available from our On-line Mapshop. All maps are very detailed and each includes an introduction.

    • The following maps in our Durham series cover Stockton. From the rural setting of Norton, where the tram terminated beside a village pond, the group moves southward to the busy centre of Stockton - with a population of over 50,000 by 1901 - and the many industries gathered around the Tees where Stockton meets Thornaby. Each map includes an introduction; most include extracts from a contemporary directory.

    The following maps in our Durham series cover Darlington, a town which grew, under Quaker influence, into a major industrial centre and one of the leading railway towns of the 19th century.
