Old Ordnance Survey Maps of Essex (Outer London)
Essex is a complicated series, because in the 20th century the series was reorganised as the
'new series', on different sheetlines. However on this page I have listed them all together. Each map includes an introduction and most also have extracts from an early
directory. Further details about individual titles are given in our
On-line Mapshop.
I have, however, divided them into two groups: This page covers those towns in the old GLC area, such as Romford and Barking, the so-called 'London-in-Essex'.
For maps in the present Essex county go to the Essex county page.
These are the detailed maps currently available for 'Essex-in-London' (or 'London-in-Essex'), that outer London portion of the
county that includes parts of Barking & Dagenham, Redbridge, Havering and Waltham Forest. Also have a look at our London series,
where several other maps cover parts of this area.
