We have published more than 2,000 maps in our series of Old Ordnance Survey Map reprints, including a group in Somerset. 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. Each covers an area of a mile and a half by a 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. Or visit The Index Page for a full list to the series and details of Prices.
Here are the details of maps for Keynsham:
This map covers the Somerset town of Keynsham. The map includes portions of both Somerset and Gloucestershire. We have chosen to work from the Gloucestershire series because the sheetlines are better.
Most of the town is shown in detail, with coverage extending NW to Durleypark. Features on the map include the GWR with station, The Park, St John the Baptist church, Dragonshill Quarry, Fairfield Terrace, Temple Street, High Street, Albert Road (at foot of map), Color Works, Keynsham Bridge, Newnham Nursery, Durleyhill House, Lamb & Lark Hotel, abbey remains.
