We have published more than 1,900 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, go to The Index Page.
Here are the details of maps for Upton, Plashet & Forest Gate:
We have two versions of this map, covering the same area at different dates. The change in titles reflects the development of the area.) The maps cover an area stretching from Fairland Road and West Ham Park eastward to Woodgrange Park Cemetery; from the GER railway southward to Plashet Road.
An index map showing the areas covered by this and adjacent maps is available here. The map links up with Sheet 33 Wanstead Flats to the north, Sheet 42 Stratford to the west, 44 East Ham to the east and 54 Plaistow to the south.
